    Doing great! Added another stinker to the mix 18 months ago. I'm done with all that baby making stuff, so now the boss will let me get back into riding again. Ha! I've missed the Tenere family! Sent from my SM-G920R4 using Tapatalk

    Cyclops replacement LED headlight bulb kit for Teneres

    Installed mine last night. No problems and they look great. IMO, even better than the DDM Tuning 35W HIDs and Morimoto Elites with upgraded bulbs I tried. Best of all there's no having to stuff ballasts/igniters or drilling caps like all the HID solutions. Like all H7 bulb bases in our S10's...

    Baja Designs OnX LED lights for Super Tenere Failed.

    Yes. You call them up telling them what you did to troubleshoot the issue you're experiencing. Then they email you a prepaid return label to send them back and they'll get a replacement out the door to you. Likely that same day before you get back from kite surfing and drinking pina coladas...

    I think I have had it with Dealers

    Re: I think I have had it with Yamaha Dealers All a matter of perspective, I guess. For you, a leaky fork seal is a deal breaker and makes you prepared to take a bath oon trade/private party sale. Again, not sure I understand the issue for a $20 part and a little bit of time. If it was...

    I think I have had it with Dealers

    Re: I think I have had it with Yamaha Dealers As Big_Blu says, ride what makes you happy. Fork seals aren't expensive or that hard to replace. I realize you're not asking, but I don't think you'll get much empathy from folks here. If it were me I'd have the parts on order and plan on...

    Spring 2015 - Romney, West Virginia - May 1-3

    I'm sure there's dozens of stories that only make sense in the context of actually being there. In fact, that's almost a guarantee! But ask and ye shall receive. Fills a Wolfman peak tailbag about half way: TrueGrip! I believe I snagged it all from Amazon for less than a $100. I think...

    Spring 2015 - Romney, West Virginia - May 1-3

    That's a great idea - no doubt trikepilot's the man to take the lead. You guys look like you had a helluva time and due to that, I'm extremely jealous! Here's what goes with me every time I swing a leg over. Everything in there I know how to use, which is probably the most important part...

    Rear drive maintenance at tire changes

    Not hard. This should help. Maybe even take it a step further and lube the swing arm bearings? http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=7138.0

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Plug the zumo into your computer. If you have an SD card in it, I just dropped it in the JPEG folder. Then unplug and power on your device. Go to the "Picture Viewer" screen, select the image, click on "Info", and select "Use this photo as the default splash screen". Boom. Instant lady bait...

    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Added a custom splash screen/wallpaper I threw together into my Zumo 665. Then went for a ride with a buddy who just bought an '05 950 Adventure S

    Thinking of hanging up the helmet

    I went through the same "disappointment" process at the AR rally last year. Especially after going through what Bruce, Wayne and I went through the first day down by Frog Bayou. I was utterly shot, physically and mentally for most of the trip - it just wasn't the same. I think I dropped the...

    2012 Tenere in the Shop

    Good stuff OldRider - I've heard good things about that at some of the marina's back home. I've been using it since last fall, and at ~$40-50/quart I make sure to get every drop of that 15ML from the glass bottle in the tank! One thing is for sure, it has very little resemblance to any obvious...

    Super Tenere on road, off road trip to the Grand Canyon.

    Awesome ride report Steve! Must've missed it during my hiatus for awhile there ::008:: One thing I've learned from riding with Bever, Funk, and Wayne is that us Iowa boys have a hankering for taking the "adventure" part of adventure bikes pretty seriously. ::001::

    Annual Rally? ???

    Thanks fellas ::008:: Helping put on the CO & AR rally was loads of fun (and work), but many memories and friendships I hope I never forget were created. I'm stepping away from the rally organizing scene and don't know what, if anything, is up the sleeve this year. Funny how an ornery 1 year...

    Best GPS for On and Off Road Riding

    FWIW, the City Navigator maps will do you good on 99% of what you'll probably ride on the Tenere. Even the smallest "roads" are typically included. You can also fool around with openstreetmaps, which I've heard good things about as well as being FREE. In my experience, the Topo line was...

    Subscribed. You boys enjoy the riding and behave yourselves ::008:: Hopefully I can come over and bug everyone one of these years.
