    New, strange clutch issue

    Due to moving and house renovations, I have hardly ridden my 2016 in over a year. I used to ride it all the time. Since I want to start riding again, I went out for a shakedown ride only to have the clutch unable to find neutral. When I turn off the bike, no problem. Came home, bled the clutch a...

    Left lights on. Is battery fried?

    Have tender on battery for 5 or so if hours. Blinking red light as though it's not even hooked up and not charging anything. Is my battery probably fried. Kind of sucks that a single drain could ruin it, but maybe so.?.

    My headlights keep burning out after only a couple thousand miles. What up with that?

    Anyone have the same problem? Seems like I'm replacing headlamp bulbs more frequently than I should. Unless this is normal.?.

    CalSci Windshield -- Surprised

    Just got a CalSci windshield to attach to my Madstad bracket on my 2016 S10 ES. After reading threads here and on advrider.com, I was sure that the windshield would fit on the bracket, no problem. That's one reason why I bought a non-Madstad windshield. But... it doesn't fit. What did I miss...

    Madstad model recommendation?

    I just busted my Madstad Tenere windshield (don't ask). I liked it, but it seemed a tad thin and, hence, moved around a little more than I would have liked. The fact that I had to get a 24" model due to my height probably exacerbated the vibrations. I'm considering giving another one a go, such...

    Busted "stay" - plastic bracket holding together dash and windshield

    Anyone had your plastic stay bust into pieces? Very strange. I noticed a couple of cracks when putting a fairing back on after I adjusted my Power Commander. The more I kept inspecting the cracks, the more I realized this bracket was destroyed. The part I'm talking about is #23 and shown below...

    Bottom plate for AltRider mount for Givi topcase basically crumbled.

    Any suggestions where I can buy just the bottom mounting plate for this AltRider set? My top plate is fine. Seems like a total waste of $$ to spend $230 basically to replace the bottom plate. This is what my current bottom plate looks like now. Oh - I ride pavement 99% of the time. The other...

    New situation - nothing happening

    First time for everything I guess. I found my bike with the key in the on position after it was sitting for a couple of days. Never have done that before after long time riding. Naturally, nothing powered up at all. I figured I completely fried the battery. Before installing new one (on its...

    Sticky downshifting, smooth upshifting

    I've read some threads on checking/greasing the shifter pivot bolt or whatever it's called. I did that. My bike has about 25K on it. 2016 ES. It's hard to imagine I need new clutch plates. If I do, I'll replace them. But is this a common issue with the S10 ES? I'm relatively new to the bike...

    Kick stand so darn long. ?.

    My bike often feels like it's going to tip over to the right because the kickstand is so long. What up with that? I can't stand when it's too short, especially when the bike is fully loaded, but this is the other extreme. Anyone know of a solution to this?

    Best battery?

    My battery is getting tired. Was looking at some online and am surprised by how much some cost. I'm pretty new to my 2016 SE so haven't bought one for this bike before. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    WTB: Stock or close to stock front seat

    I have a 2016. By "close to stock" I mean something like a Touratech - i.e., something that is basically the same shape as stock.

    Yoshimura exhaust too dang loud - any suggestions?

    I bought the bike (2016 ES) with Arrow headers and Yoshimura can. Breathes nicey, but it's just too damn loud for me. I've repacked the can, but it didn't really help that much. Anybody have a mod they can suggest to quiet that thing down? I'd consider trading it for a stock or different...

    Northern VA noobie to Super Tenere

    Just bought a nice 2016 with a bunch of goodies. Of course, I'm adding more. Every bike I buy gets a work-over to make it user friendly. One thing that I find challenging is the lack of space to install fuse block and neatly organize additional wiring. Jeez. Reminds me of the rootballs of the...
