    Hmmm where's the Super Teneres??

    IBA Australia Muster a few years ago we had 9 s10s out of maybe 50 bikes. Most of those guys now have a newer one and a second unit too. Off the top of my head I can count 15 units I actually know the riders and I'm sure I've missed 1 or 2. They do exist in Australia. Those I know of manage...

    Oil Change

    I took a good long read of the Penrite Flush product. Observations. No solvents and has extra zinc. Seems I remember reading just that earlier in this thread. Its a pre Oil drain service product and not a detergent oil. It goes in the motor for 10 minutes operation once the motor is at op temp...

    Oil Change

    Thanks Boris. Wasnt sure about EricV as I see posts on other forums. Ive been considering making this part of my diesel service with PDP regens and truly crappy looking oil even from almost new and as I posted Skidoo does this on all his teneres. I know Karl well and wondered if anyone else...

    Oil Change

    Who uses and engine oil flush prior to doing the full filter/oil change ? I've not found mention in the 25 pages just read. Skidoo mentioned recently he's now doing this as a regular step. Seems to have worked in his GTR14 and the S10s thus far. EricV do you have any info? Also EricV that STP...

    Rusty fuel Tank

    To my knowledge the FJR and the TDM share the same pump. I used to build Aux tanks and did several Gen 1,2 and 3 FJRs. This job required pulling the pump assembly out so I could gain access. They all seemed to be the same. Even the part number from the catanddog.

    Rusty fuel Tank

    Ive been cleaning out an extremely rusted up TDM900 tank and Ive been watching the level of susses with a few different tank liner kits. KBS seems to feature often. I used Cyder Vinegar in 4 ltr bottles purchased from Ag supplies shops. The level of rust and rubbish that came out was shocking...

    2021 S10's are posted on Yamaha's site.

    Is that..Production? or just delivery? sales in the UK. We saw this " sestatiuon of production" crap in Australia years back for the ST1300 Honda. What was meant was no longer importing the modle to this country. The bike went on to be produced. Just not marketed here.

    S10s in the Iron Butt Rally!

    Well it passed inspection and I got my Iron Butt plaque. My aux tank meets all the requirements in Appendix A per IBA rules. And no you don't need an aux tank on a Super Tenere. In fact it is discouraged by the IBA IBA is not the IBR. Two different animals in the same farm yard.

    Sounds similar to Olivers MC Brisbane
