After 4+ years of S10 ownership I've decided to move on. I didn't get as many miles on it as I would have thought, only managing just shy of 12K and apart from a few niggles its been the most dependable bike I've owned. A few things steered me into swapping it out , these were 1) my local...

Anyone else eagerly awaiting the much rumoured XT700s arrival? I hear its likely to be shown at Intermot alongside a number of other new yams. I've got the nextbike itch and feel its time to move on from my now 5year old S10 and the XT700 will most likely be on the shortlist of possible...

I've just had my head turned ??? . http://f.cl.ly/items/131m1T3u0v46471b0y2V/New-AT-MCN.jpg On a serious note I wouldn't bet on anything printed in MCN being based on truth or fact but if faintly correct Honda may well be the 1st to offer a comparable/usable/reliable competitor to the S10...

I was bored so trawled the yam uk online parts database to see what parts were needed If trying to swap the '14 adjustable screen on to an earlier S10 Theres quite a few small parts bolts fiddly bits needed as can be seen from the list and It's not clear if the old central screen stay will take...

I've been running a Remus Titanium can on my S10 for about 3k miles sans the DB killer , and I loved the way it sounded loud but not too loud,to my ear? ( probably quieter than my stock canned Ducati superlight though that could be 20yr old cans and I suspect Italian interpretation of noise...

I'd previously ordered a World Crosser kit sticker set from my local yam parts dealer (P/N 23P-F17C0-V0) and as I had ballsed up the screen sticker fitment and the exhaust side cover (as it wouldn't stick to the carbon wrap) I thought I's see about getting a 2nd kit as it would also give me some...

Just bought these in a moment of madness There are a pair of TCX X-Force ankle boots. I've been finding my current go to boot Sidi Adventures a little to hot and humid in our current stuffy Summer and my previous ankle boots purchases were too much hassle to use , being lace ups and not...

:) after my tales of woe with the HB Xplorer topbox I decided to buy a Touratech ZegaPro topbox (and rack) , it arrived today fresh from Germany and I've just fitted it up to the S10 Fitting was a piece of cake and the most fiddly bit was fitting the box to rack lock into the case, thought that...

I was an early adopter of the HB Xplorer Topbox back in 2009 bought to go on my then XT660Z tenere. I now find that after about 10Kmiles of mixed commute and reasonable distance work the bottom plastic base has cracked on every corner and on the sides where it is riveted to the alloy panels ...

As my collection of lids was aging and my current lid of choice being my 4 year old Shoei Hornet (also the newest) I was getting an itch for a new bonce protector. I really like the hornet as its peak means I can ride with a clear visor in sunny conditions as I hate being caught out with a...

http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/newsresults/videos/2013/April/apr0513-video-adventure-bikes-group-test/ Sample of the recent MCN Adv bike group test. They list the S10 as 4th out of 4 though I suspect this is because its 3yrs old without update :/ . Wierdly they also state its lacking in...

Well I have succumbed to some World Crosser Porn for my 1st Edition . I had taken a fancy to the Fork guards and a few other bits but always felt a bit put off by the cost of the bits but found a seller with a bit of a discount on some of the bits (small but enough to tempt) I was after the side...

After finding I was getting some shoulder issues on longer journeys I started trying a few tweaks in an attempt to sort out the ergos to better fit me. I had found I was riding with Elbows raised and sitting close to the tank which seemed to be stressing my rhomboids/shoulders , rolling the bars...

Yamaha UK have sent me a warrenty check letter which invited me to get mine checked for issues before the warrenty expired. Mine is one of the 1st edition bikes . Its just been in and they replaced all spokes and nipples (they had started to pit/blacken) some of ther brake banjo bolts which had...

Just had a pair of K60 Scouts fitted to my S10, the oem Tourance EXPs had survided to 3390 miles and the rear was just about done , very square and probably had about couple of hundred miles at most left. 1st ride out on the K60s was a bit nervy on tarmac as the release agent needs to clear but...
