    Bag Suggestions for under Alt Rider Rear Rack

    I got a cool custom fitted bag for mine from http://www.stormind.net/home.html I don't see it listed in the store section of the webpage but just shoot them an email from the contact button and they'll hook you up ;)

    Scotts steering damper

    The reason you don' see a fork brace on USD forks is because the tire would hit it under compression because it is bolted to a non moving structure. On standard forks the brace moves up and down with the legs so the tire can't hit it.

    How to Install a Vent Hose on Final Drive?

    I've had my Tenere deep enough to get water in the engine (knew i was in trouble when the water was over the seat) and the final drive never got any water in it...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    It was a cool 42 degrees in CT today but that didn't stop me from going for a quick (40 mile) ride. Took a few random detours down some fire roads and even some single track to remind me just how fun and agile this bike is ::015::

    What did you name your Super Tenere?

    I have 4 bikes so it kinda worked out that the Super Ten is "The Big Bike", my Xr650L is simply "the Xr", the CBR250 is "Zippy", and my pit pike is "Bruiser" (named because it's the only bike I have that I ALWAYS get hurt on. LOL)

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Took it for a quick (20 mile) ride then did an oil change and general inspection for loose bits and pieces. I also installed a removable cup holder for the rear passenger so I don't end up with another coffee spilled down my back 30 seconds after hearing "don't worry, I won't spill it"... LOL

    Just so you know!

    I guess I got lucky, I went in water deep enough to get in the airbox and the engine but my driveshaft stayed water free. Took 6 oil changes to get the engine oil looking normal again...

    Solo rider, Sena SMH5 or Scala Q1?

    I have the SMH-5 (actually two of them), it works pretty well and I have no complaints with it. When using as an intercom between bikes the range seems fair, I'd have to say 300yds in clear air. One thing I'd suggest is getting the "large speaker upgrade". They're alot louder and the sound...

    Karoo 3

    Well they certainly look pretty cool and I'd like to try them and see how they work. According to the Metzler page they are going to make a Tenere size http://metzeler.com/site/us/products/tyres-catalogue/Karoo-3.html . I checked a few suppliers and seems like they were all still waiting on...

    Texting while riding

    I have the Sena smh-5 and a Nokia 920. I love the combo, and have had similar experiences of silliness with mine too... Lol
