    Sold: 2012 Yamaha Super Tenere with DMC Sidecar $16K obo

    I've had three Russell Day Longs on past bikes and would always go for them again if needed. I found the stock seat on the Super10, pretty comfortable so I didn't put one on it. Only one of the RDLs I had was made for me - the other two were secondhand. The secondhand ones were made for two...

    Sold: 2012 Yamaha Super Tenere with DMC Sidecar $16K obo

    I just answered a PM from doc187 offering to introduce him to Ace_Cafe_Rat, but now I see I don't need to. Great!

    Sold: 2012 Yamaha Super Tenere with DMC Sidecar $16K obo

    EFM makes something similar to the Rekluse, for the Tenere. I went to his shop in Ohio and had him install one. It is good at parking lot speeds, solves the issue I have with insufficient strength to feather the clutch for long. Upshifts are buttery smooth beyond anything I could ever have...

    Back ordered clutch parts?

    Thanks AdvToorer. I just bookmarked that. But I am going to keep watching this thread in case someone finds one that is already on this side of the pond. :) I'll try to post another thread with pics of the sidecar, later. I have a photobucket album with pics but they've changed their sites...

    Back ordered clutch parts?

    I just called them and they do not actually have it. But thanks for trying!

    Back ordered clutch parts?

    Hello, I have not posted in ages, but those who remember me will know I am suffering a progressive health issue that has made the left side of my body increasingly weak. To keep riding my Super10, I have installed a sidecar (holds the bike up at stops!), a Klicktronic shifter (because my foot...

    EFM Autoclutch and Klicktronic Ignition Interrupt

    The sidecar is working out pretty well, although I sometimes think I should have gotten one of the smaller ones. I thought that a big sidecar would be the best since the Super10 is so tall, but maybe a more moderate sized one would have worked as well and be easier to store. It's certainly eye...

    Installing an ignition interrupt - need to identify connectors to coils

    I never did identify it. The coil has a Mitsubishi part number on it, which is shared with several cars, but interestingly enough the car coils have different connectors. Ultimately I gave up and we cut the wiring harness. Oh well, I suppose I won't ever pull this out of here anyway - if I...

    EFM Autoclutch and Klicktronic Ignition Interrupt

    For those who have not seen me mention this previously, due to some medical issues, I probably have the most heavily (and peculiarly) modded Super10 of anyone on this forum. ::) Anyways, my clutch hand is following my left foot into stupidity and weakness. I can take a nice ride through the...

    Rekluse Clutch for The Super Tenere

    Re: recluse adventure clutch Well, I contacted them several weeks ago and they just said "Nope" and referred me to EFM. Perhaps they're getting more interested as more of us reach out to them.

    Rekluse Clutch for The Super Tenere

    The way the EFM clutch works, is that they take out the clutch springs and install an apparatus that has ball bearings in sloping tracks that radiate out from the center. At low RPMs the bearing balls move towards the center and the clutch freewheels, but as you increase the revs, the balls...

    Rekluse Clutch for The Super Tenere

    Garry installed the clutch for me a couple weeks ago. It worked as expected, but one of the things to expect is that you need to shift clutchless in the higher gears. And since I depend on a pushbutton shifter made by Kliktronic, I need to add yet another farkle, an ignition interrupt. I have...
