Cheers Eric that was precisely my thought. I’m no forum expert but I would have thought the way images are posted on the forum, which is clearly in the public domain and accessible by everyone, would be different to the way they are handled via a DM/PM, as they say “there’s always more than 1...

For those of us in the UK (or outside of the UK if you can ship your stuff to them) this place can make you a new red key if you need one or can produce black keys from a black key https://www.carmoelectronics.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=990

Thanks for your explanation Eric, I only asked the question as Venture mentioned in post #15 that he was looking into it so I thought I’d ask! I ass-umed (thanks Sierra1:)) that the insert picture icon would allow me to - well insert a picture directly, as opposed to using the insert a link...

Rob, This is what I got when I tried just now and earlier today on my iPad

Did you ever get anywhere when looking into this please?

I wouldn’t drill them out, use a sharp centre punch and hammer to loosen them by tapping the head round anti clockwise, once loosened they will come out easy enough. Over the years I’ve done dozens like this ( mostly on cars) and never had a problem.

I’m pretty certain the US bikes don’t have transponders in the keys that interact with the ECU to prevent it from starting, therefore they don’t need to program their keys using the red key

15k miles vs 31k miles, that mileage makes no difference- IMHO, however condition and history means a great deal more. Have you taken a look at either or both of them?

Great safety footwear worn throughout there!

Not in the UK/Europe, you could still get an XT1200Z (without the electronic suspension etc.) in 2020 along with the ZE’s but they were not eligible for first registration from 01/01/2021 because of emissions regulations. However a lot of bikes held in stock were registered by dealers before the...

That’s good, SWMotech and Heed bars are shite - please don’t ask how I know that!

Welcome, nice looking bike - I fancy one of those myself. You might find this a useful thread over on advrider https://advrider.com/f/threads/the-xtz750-super-tenere.1488/page-94

Rob, .gov website says otherwise. I suspect it’s as a result of the gift that keeps on giving, otherwise known as Brexit https://www.gov.uk/driving-abroad/international-driving-permit

Just a thought, you’ve not had the airbox off recently have you?

St Helens, I’ll PM you the postcode/ address if you like

Is it deffo light number 4 as shown in the owners handbook (see image below) that remains on? If that’s the case it should be oil level, so should be easy to resolve. If it’s light 5, then that is the engine light and will need further investigation. I have an OBD reader and a dongle to...

I second what Boris says above. I too stayed in a few huts when I couldn’t be bothered with my tent and they were always warm and very comfortable. I thought I had morphed into Owen Wilson - wow, WOW around so many turns, and it’s not even a word I use! Unfortunately I missed out the Lofoten...

I am very much aware of that, which is why I have a Givi 42L top box with OEM top opening panniers. But your original question asked about side opening boxes, not top opening boxes being used with large top boxes

Why would the top box get in the way of side opening boxes? It’s possible that top opening panniers may not open properly with some large top boxes, particularly if the panniers are hinged rather than the lift off type, but I can’t see how side opening ones would be affected - unless I’m...

Thanks for that link Rob. Given that 10 AWG IS 2.588mm, does anyone know off hand the thickness of the starter cable on the S10? I’m just wondering if 9 AWG (2.906mm) or even 8 AWG (3.264mm)would be better, if that’s the case I’ll probably need to make up my own pigtail. I had been working on...
