    Lust Racing 10mm Jack up Dog Bones for Yamaha Super Tenere 1200 I bought these mainly to help with ground clearance and steering when 2-up and they worked a treat, they only raise the bike 10mm but it really helps both steering and ground clearance (which I found quite limited when 2-up with...

    Turned to the Dark Side (Well Orange)

    I have finally got bored of my Super Tenere, it refuses to do anything other than function perfectly, nothing has fallen off and I doubt anything ever will. A cracking deal on a KTM1190 has swayed me to the Orange side where excitement (Mechanical Failures and huge servicing costs) await. The...

    Garmin Zumo 340 / 390 Range mouting to S10

    Has anyone here fitted a Garmin 340 / 390 to the S10 :question: Apparently it comes with a "Motorcycle Mount" but this just looks to be a square plastic tray with holes in the back as if you then need to bolt the sat-nav into the tray. There is no sign of anything used to then connect the...

    2014 REstrictions

    I know it has been debated about is the 2014 restricted or not, but I had not seen a definitive answer anywhere. Apparently it is, I heard from CJS who have been working with the 2014 ECU and he confirms it is restricted, but he said not as badly as the earlier model, and the change from...

    UK affordable Flash / Custom ECU Mapping

    Chris at CJS Racing can now offer some very affordable Flash options for the Super Tenere (2010 - 2013) Currently the going rate is £350 - £450 for most vendors and involves sending your ECU off somewhere and when it comes back the restrictions will be gone. All of these vendors also recommend...

    New UK based ADV Forum

    Not sure if this has been posted, but worth a look: http://www.adventurebikers.net/ Covers all adv bikes with a UK focus - and not dominated by BMW's as they probably are all happy with their huge site. A few S10 owners there already, not sure who else from here has a login :question:

    How Lucky We Are

    It seems BMW are now having to swap out engines on 2013 GS models... http://www.ukgser.com/forums/showthread.php?362855 Oddly they seem to get a great reputation by building awful bikes and then going to great lengths to fix them, whereas Yamaha seem to get very little credit for building a...

    Number of UK bikes

    Came across this on another forum: http://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/ Looks like a mere 550 UK Tenere's http://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/yamaha_xt_1200_z_super_tenere More interesting is that the 2010 BMW 1200GS only outnumbers it about 5:1, although I think the GSA is a separate model so...

    New Stuff

    Pics of WC Stickers, SW-Motech crash Bars and Sump Guard below. Looking a bit better, the plain silver was just too plain, much happier now, and the bash plate is doing a great job of protecting the engine, it came in bare Ali, but I had it painted black as the bike was too shiny already.

    Another UK Magazine beating for the Tenere

    Is how they start the summing up in ride magazine :( Then again it was up against the GS, four bikes, four riders, two GS owners and zero Yamaha owners, I dunno why they did not just ask the CEO and Marketing Director of BMW Motorrad to write the f*** review. In fairness they can only review...

    ECU restrictions, Clutch Mod, Flashes, Exhausts and Power Commanders

    The same questions seem to keep cropping up and there are endless topics about if the bike is or is not restricted, does the Flash do the same as the CJM or PC5 blah, blah, blah. I have scoured the forum, spoken to several flash providers and tuning companies and stuck my own bike on the dyno...

    ECU Removal

    I just followed Carsons simple instructions:- http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=7356.0 And took a few pictures as I went, as he implied it was so easy I decided to have a look and to blast some compressed ACF-50 around all the connectors whilst I was at it. As stated it is quite...

    Beating the ECU issue to death

    OK, so those who do not care about my ECU questions do not have to read any more about it I thought I would start a new thread for those that may be interested. I am not having a go at anyones setup for being shite or anything, just that it appears that a full system often upsets the flash...

    Yamaha UK to stop selling new Tenere's

    They do not seem to know about this yet but a quick look at the competition for this season tells me otherwise. Just been reading about the new kids on the block in Ride Magazine, they test the new KTM and BMW (Both get great reviews - certainly better than any UK review of a Tenere I have ever...

    Any UK owners fancy adjustable dog Bones?

    I think I am going to pitch in for some adjustable dog bones, my quest is to get another 4-5mm ride height, my stiffer sprung shock already helps with this and assists ground clearance, but I fancy a bit more ride height for a better steering response and think this will be the way forward...
