    You're selling your bike, you're moving on, what NEXT ?

    If only this thread had kept to the subject matter. JSNS. As for me, I'm moving on to an EMTB. Electric Mountain Bike. I'm 65 years old and although I love the idea of an adventure bike, I'm more of a daytripper. That being said, I'll take the Beta out for day trips and use the EMTB for quick...

    I suspect the real problem is Post Whores who can't or won't fail to comment on anything and everything no matter how banal or off S10 the thread is. JSNS

    Getting off the line

    A cheap and simple approach might be to adjust the clutch handle. I had similar problems when knew. Not quite as extreme, but I had trouble pulling away from a stop without stalling or over revving. I played around with the clutch handle adjuster until I got it to start engaging earlier. Quick...

    Can I get some ad evaluations? (about to buy)

    What's with all the skid plate talk? You'd have to try mighty hard to use the plate this bike came with let alone any of the fancy ones. Most folks on adventure bikes don't even need the crash bars although the crash bars are more likely to be used than the skid plate. JSNS

    BMW recall 440,000 bikes....moments of appreciation

    I keep wondering if, on the BMW/ GS Forum, there are 7 pages of BMW owners pondering the plusses and minuses of the S10. JSNS

    The first Honda Gold Wing was flawed but distinctly special

    My understanding was that, oddly enough, it was supposed to be marketed as a cafe racer.

    Hard Choices

    Apropos of nothing, a neighbor of mine has a newer AT and between the dealer breaking a cowling plastic during maintenance and him breaking a plastic part in a 0 MPH tipover, I'll gladly keep my S10. JSNS

    Bike Bandits Bankrupt

    Just a heads up. It appears that Bike Bandits has gone bankrupt. According to some reports their website is still up and taking orders and money, but it is extremely unlikely you will see your order or money ever again.

    Remote area travel

    Depends on your nature. For some, the adventure outweighs the risk and they'd happily die while trapped beneath the bike. For others, there isn't enough preparation to calm their fears. I like to think I'm somewhere in between. YMMV

    Motorcycle airco…

    I'm assuming any naysayers are also against heated vests, grips, gloves,etc.. Actually looks like a great idea for those of us in the Southwest. I'm sure the new and improved version will be a little sleeker, but if this is viable I can see it as an option on the big cruisers and Goldwings.

    Have you dropped your Super Tenere? Damage?

    Interesting that he has an "I heart TABASCO" Bumper sticker. Omen?
