    Helibar Clearance w/ Tank Bag

    I am interested in getting a set of Helibar risers but am concerned that they may interfere with my Givi XS308 20 liter tank bag. With stock bars, I have about 1 3/4 inches between the bar clamps and the front of the bag. The handlebars (switches) touch the tank bag only at full lock. Does...

    24 Hr Review by FortNine

    Re: just another Super Tenere video review from some dude..... ::026:: Most of us have gotten here after having serveral types of bikes prior. Maybe for him, the Super T ain't his cup of tea. That is why we have choices. To his ship reference, I'll still take my "Super Tanker" - thank you...

    How old are you Super Ten rider?

    58 here. This is my first Super T. From the responses, looks like it appeals to an older(more mature) crowd :). Riding since 10. Raced enduro and HS early '80s. Got to AMA and ECEA A classes then quit racing after an injury. Decided Dual Sport was more fun. It's nice to be able to do...

    New Member from FJR to 2017 Super Ten

    Welcome! There are many here that have let go of their FJR, including myself. I had both for most of last year and decided that I just liked riding the Super T more. http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=23721.0 Enjoy your new Super T!

    Hello from Saskatchewan Canada

    ::026:: WELCOME Yamaha is all I usually buy too (street and dirt bikes, snowmobiles). A few Hondas snuck in there over the years. I look at other brands and the build quality and design are just not up to the standards of Yamaha, IMHO, especially in snowmobiles. Plus I have a good Yamaha...

    helmet and neck issue

    I am with you on this. I get a sharp pain between my shoulder blades. This usually starts on the second day of a multi-day trip. I thought it was the riding position of the FJR. I hoped when I got the Super T that it would not be an issue anymore - but it is still there - maybe not as bad. I...

    Another FJR Jettisoned

    Like several others on the forum, I finally let go my 2014 FJR1300ES this past weekend. :( I kept the FJR when I bought my 2017 Super-T not knowing which one I would like better for street only riding. I rode them back to back many times. I was amazed how small and heavy the FJR felt. The...
