Try adjusting your shift lever higher to make room for the boot. I wear a pair of Forma Predator 2.0’s they’re more In the enduro/mx family of boots but I find them very comfortable even for walking around in. The protection is second to none. I tend to ride more single track and after a foot...

I believe 90% of the various guards you can buy are pointless expense. I have been off-roading my 2014es for 4 years, its been dropped and crashed more times than I can remember and even dragged around while lying on its side to get it in to a better position to pick back up. I have Altrider...

I noticed while skimming over this thread the mention of ground clearance. I off road my ST a lot. I have a 30mm Jack up kit fitted and find that the 30mm lift plus the reduced weight from removing stock exhaust etc and upping the preload (ES Model) I get enough ground clearance to tackle most...

Powder coated my fuel tank

Could be worth while going down to the local electronics store and get the right diameter banana terminals to solder onto some jumper wires to make a good connection and leave in the tool box.

I will leave this here for others who may stumble across it and it may perhaps help the OP and others who responded but did not quite get it right. First some terminology "Track" - This is a series of points dropped that when connected form a path. Only 2 points would form a straight line...

It is probably just an NO/NC rocker switch and whoever assembled the kit put the wire on the wrong spade

You can rule out ABS. the ABS system could be completely non functioning and your brakes will work perfectly fine with the exception of no anti-lock feature. As for the Yamaha dealer suggesting ABS module replacement after only doing a flush that is the reason I do not use dealer workshops. the...

You could get it plugged properly from the inside but the tyre shop will hate you for having the sealant inside. Chances are you could ride on your plug until the tyre is dead if you did a good job of it. Certainly no need for a new tyre.

I think the upper bar is just added weight, expense. I have run the Altrider lowers since I bought my S10 in 2014. I ride predominately off road, on some very technical terrain I have dropped my bike more times than I can count, on sand, rocks, in mud, at speed, at a stand still and everywhere...

I won't fault the Angels I love them in fact, but from my experience 5-6,000 km's maximum of weekend sport touring on my old VFR1200F similar weight to the S10 more power and torque though. the only way I could see getting any more milage out of them would be a lot of very sedate commuting.

I'm sure when this thread pops up on the home page with "NEW" next to it's title there is a lot of "Yeeeeah...aaawwwwwww :("

One of the problems with this forum is the fact we have a mix of Gen 1 and Gen 2 owners while the bikes look near identical and most things are interchangeable there are some very key differences around the specs that make things confusing. On the VFR forum I visit the forum is divided by...

Yamaha claims for the 2014+ Super tenere's is 112hp/84kw T mode - doesn't cut the power and torque output as such it limits the amount of throttle you can have. T-Mode changes the progression of the throttle meaning you need to twist it further to get the same amount you would get in S-Mode...

Not on the Tenere yet, but I am revamping the controls I have added with some new switches. The spotties switch ss illuminated Blue with just the label in the off position and the 2 spot lights in the on position, It's also a nice big switch and easy to find with a gloved thumb, handy when...

Another reason for flashing is being able to tailor the riding modes. When I flashed mine I changed T-Mode a lot: - full power at full throttle, Stock is max 70% - changed the throttle progression, ramps up slowly to 50% and then is pretty much linear to 100% - engine braking almost disabled...

The last part fresh off the printer.

I've been working on this for a few days now and the project is almost complete. It consists of 4x 3D printed components joined by 12x3mm flat bar. A left and right stabiliser are clamped to the accessory bar and the lower bracket slots over the dash and head light frame, forming a triangle...

Honestly unplug yourself from the internet for just a moment and go and ride one. The only time the power would come into question when compared to other bikes in its class is a straight line drag race, and top end speed approaching 200km/+ When you are negotiating a step rutted rocky climb in...
