Wow. You certainly have added a lot of accessories. GLWS.

I forgot. Thank you.

Gone. Thanks.

I sold my S10 a while back and today discovered I still have the key locks that came with the bike. I hate throwing stuff in the trash so willing to ship them to someone as long as I get reimbursed for shipping either with a check or PayPal. Let me know. Eddie.

Just want to say thank you to this forum for wonderful guidance, thoughts and friendship. A few days okay I traded in my 2017 tan or sand colored S10 for a 2020 Yamaha XMax. The S10 provided almost 50k outstanding miles but in the end the weight and high CG wore me down. Also, I never have been...

A small status update. I'm now at almost 13k miles on the tires and still have tread so best lasting tires so far. I'm convinced that I would buy these again.

Here is how I trailer mine.

Wisperquiet, yes, the Tracer 9GT is on my radar. I might have already bought one except the color of the matte black with rust orange was a no go... for me. And now that I have delayed, the new 2021 or 2022 model is rather impressive on the spec sheet. Of course, I still need to see one in...

Top Ten, I did such as you described and bike runs fine. However, the stalls were few and far in between. However, like you, I consider the stalling issue behind me.

Darn, I forgot to mention I had a the front brake switch recall completed. The recall came at the right time as the cruise control light would occasionally flash. A restart would resolve the problem but then it would return miles later. I have since ridden almost 300 miles with the replacement...

Well, time is flying by and my S10 is three years old and currently at 42,934 miles. Last year I posted this https://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?threads/second-anniversary.27819/#post-396899 First item I want to mention: stalling. I finally became convinced battery voltage was dropping...

Note: My rain experience may be caused by the lack of rain on Texas roads so when we do get rain the roads are really slick with oils, antifreeze, etc...

Been a long time since I have posted an update. First, I only have approximately 6,700 miles on the tires. The tires were installed February of 2020 and due to Covid and personal medical issues I just haven’t ridden much in 2020. As before, I like these tires on dry dirt roads as they are really...

First was stock tires; okay but didn't last too long. Next was Michelin Anakee 3's; rear howled when new but otherwise really like the tires. Rear lasted approximately 15k but front was a complete shocker with needing replacement before 9k. Weird. Next I tried Pirelli Scorpion Trail 2; similar...

A short update. I'm approximately at 5,000 miles and tires show minimal wear...very minimal. I rode on some New Mexico and Colorado dirt roads (rain and shine) and very pleased. At this point I'm rather pleased. New Mexico and Colorado Ride
