    2021 S10's are posted on Yamaha's site.

    I don't want to turn the S10 into a BMW either, but its hard to compete in a market when your product is the only one that has not had any updates in 7 years. And if no one buys the product, production will stop. And speaking of BMW. . . they're currently on a stop sale order until...

    2021 S10's are posted on Yamaha's site.

    Absolutely NO upgrades. Only a different color for 2021. :mad::mad: To say I'm disappointed would be an understatement. Reminds me of the Honda XL 650 that comes out every year. Hasn't been changed or upgraded. They just throw different graphics on it and call it a new year model.

    So the Super tenere stock is empty and they told me is discontinue

    The salesman I bought my wife's Goldwing said the same thing to me earlier this year. . . He has been selling bikes for 15 years and this is the busiest he has ever seen it.

    So the Super tenere stock is empty and they told me is discontinue

    There are still lots of 2019 models and a couple of 2018 models that are listed for sale also. When Yamaha announces the 2021 models, if I don't like them I can pick up a new 2019-2020 model for a substantial discount. I don't believe for 1 second that Yamaha is discontinuing the S10. The...

    It's time for an update Yamaha.

    I agree. I had a 2012 GW and liked it. If they would have just put in a 6 speed transmission it would have been better. But Honda completely redesigned it and Its nothing like the previous model. Technology cost. Light bulbs are cheap. LED lighting assemblies are not. Sometimes...

    It's time for an update Yamaha.

    I don't think a totally new bike is necessary either. But. . . a few modern upgrades would make it a much nicer and modern bike. Personally, I would like to see modern LED lighting, and an upgraded instrument display. A pre packaged option like the Raid edition would be like icing on the...

    It's time for an update Yamaha.

    Regarding the S-10, Yamaha needs an update to stay competitive in the market. Everyone else now has LED lighting, along with additional lights for corning. Yes, the S-10 is priced below other bikes, but this class of motorcycles are very popular and without an update I'm afraid Yamaha will...

    2018 Honda Gold Wing Unveiled today

    It also has no tail/brake lights on the trunk this year. Not thrilled about that. I like my lights as close to eye level as possible, not just below the trunk. I read in an article that said that Honda's theory behind the smaller bags was most Wing riders rarely use all the luggage space...

    Heading from North TX to Kerrville tomorrow

    I was in Llano about a month ago. . . Stopped at Coopers. I got 1 beef rib, 3 pork ribs, 1 piece of sausage, cobbler and Ice tea. Bill came to $30. ??? ??? ??? It was good, but not $30 dollars good. To rich for my blood. I won't be back.

    Are 2014 ST sales better?

    Yeah, one of the dealerships that I went by said he doesn't stock them because its a bike that people love to look at, just not buy. Then he said, " We can get one, we just don't stock them." When I informed him, that I would have to throw a leg over the bike to see how it felt, before...

    Are 2014 ST sales better?

    I went by 3 dealers today wanting to look at a 2014 model. . . All three dealers said they were sold out of their stock and were waiting for the 2015s. Soooo, does anyone know if sales are better this year, or did the dealers just not order very many ? One of the dealers even had a new 2012...

    USA Bids Farewell to the Super Tenere - We Hardly Knew Ya'...

    2014 Tenere Possible News I just read today on another forum, that Yamaha has informed their dealers in that 2014 Teneres would be available for order as of March. Don't know if there are any planned changes, or even if this is accurate information. Im just passing it along. If its...

    USA Bids Farewell to the Super Tenere - We Hardly Knew Ya'...

    Since were giving our 2 cents worth, heres mine. . . Yamaha has spent a truckload on R&D for this bike and factory accessories and is not going to kill it. I think they are going to improve it, and have a late release for the 14 year model. It would make more sense to just cut back on...
