For anyone interested in a size 48 Darien jacket, at a great price, I have mine on eBay. As a result of my diet and exercise program, it is simply far too big for me now. Great jacket. Three years old, in very good condition. The optional back protector pad is included. Check it out here...

I purchased these pants in 2013, size 42 waist, regular length. Thanks to a regimen of diet and exercise, I have lost a lot of weight over the past year, and they are now far too large for me. They are in very good shape, with no rips or tears, just some wear on the interior liner in the knee...

Just purchased another bike to keep my Super Tenere company in my garage. It is a 2009 Suzuki Bandit 1250 with ABS. I bought it mostly for my son to ride, but I hope to get out on it from time to time as well. It has high mileage (little over 100,000 kilometres) but has been well maintained and...

For those who are music fans, check out this video. I have met these ladies and have seen them perform a number of times. They are based in Toronto, and are excellent singer/songwriters. The video even has a vintage Yamaha making an appearance; it looks like a late-80s Virago. Enjoy! Cheers...

Hey fellow Teneristas, has anyone had experience with this product? It looks pretty good, and I am thinking of adding this farkle over the winter, but I would like to know if anyone has used the system, and what your experience with it was, good or bad...

Just saw on Facebook a few days ago that Liz Jansen (trilliumliz) a member of this forum, is recovering from a broken shoulder sustained in an accident in southern Alberta. I don't know the circumstances, but Liz indicated she thinks her Super Tenere will be a write-off. I am not sure how often...

Attention southern Ontario Super Tenere riders. The International Brotherhood of Adventure Riders - Ontario, a Facebook group, is planning an informal get-together at "A Vicious Cycle" (http://aviciouscycle.ca/mainpages/default.aspx) in New Dundee, Ontario on Saturday, June 28, 2014 at 10 AM...

For any of you who live in Hamilton or elsewhere at the west end of the Greater Toronto Area, I was visiting with some relatives over the weekend and stopped in at Kelly's Cycle Centre in Hamilton. My first impression of the place was very positive. It seems like an old-fashioned motorcycle...

Can anyone think of any compelling reason for me to hang onto the stock pipe, now that I have replaced it with an Akrapovic? I suppose the only consideration might be if I eventually sell or trade in the Super Ten, I could put the stock pipe back on and sell the Akra separately, but I don't see...

Having it installed next week when The Blue goes in for a service. Can't wait to hear how it sounds! Bruce

Thought everyone would get a kick out of this vintage Yamaha television ad: Yamaha Motorcycle Commercial (1960s) Bruce

Has anybody else noticed their onboard thermometer seems to be wildly inaccurate, or is it just mine? This morning, when I was leaving for work, the weather network indicated the temperature was 4 degrees C. My S10 thermometer indicated all the way in that the ambient temperature was 16 C. My...

Dallara's poll about the number of members in each State got me wondering about how many Super Ténérés there are in Canada, so for all the Canucks on the Board, what City and Province or Territory do you live in? I'll start. London, Ontario. Cheers, Bruce

Yesterday (September 1, 2013) I went for a very scenic ride with two friends, one on a Triumph Tiger Explorer, and the other on a Suzuki V-Strom, to Port Dover, Ontario, host town to the famous Friday the Thirteenth gatherings. On the outskirts of town, there is an enormous home under...

I was just at the dealership visiting my new bike, which was in for its 1000 km. check and some serious farkling. My Piaa 1100x driving lights were donated from my traded-in Moto Guzzi Stelvio, along with the Hornet electronic deer alert and a Powerlet accessory 12V socket. I purchased a...

In Exeter, Ontario, today at around 1 PM. You were northbound on a white S10, riding alongside a BMW GS. I was on a blue Victory Cross Tour, borrowed from my dealer while he was farkling my new ST and performing the 1000 km. check. Cheers, Bruce

Hello everyone. I joined the forum a while ago out of general interest, but have been the happy (until recently) owner of a 2009 Moto Guzzi Stelvio. My Stelvio left me stranded by the side of the road three times with electrical problems in as many days while I was on a trip to Alaska with three...

Hi Super Ten owners and fans. I have a 2009 Moto Guzzi Stelvio, and I am very interested in all big bore adventure bikes, so I thought I would sign up and see what's happening in the ST world. Hope everyone is having a good riding season and has had lots of great rides, both on pavement and off...
