    the silver capped thing is a vent, I believe. The two bolts on the bottom and side in your first pic are what you need for the oil change

    Hi Folks, new to site and contemplating S10

    The Super Tenere has been on the ground all over the world for well over 2 years now. I think at this point we are way past "wait and see" phase. It has been put through every type of road scenario out there. These days most companies are retooling bike models every 3 or 4 years on...

    final drive oil - likely used the wrong kind..am i safe or should i stop riding?

    where are you reading that? My service manual states a final drive oil change every 12k after break-in. Not that it makes a big difference, but I'm curious why your source would differ from mine

    the first one is quite tasty. Tar flavored, with hints of spiced blueberry and plum. the finish is very long the second one does not taste as good. That is the only difference that I can tell

    you would probably be shocked to hear what I pay for insurance (way more than 1300 bucks). Those of us who live in new york city pay for it dearly

    Any possibility of installing a slipper clutch on this bike?

    apparently there is a slipper clutch available for the 1200GS. NOT FAIR! everyone pressure your local representatives. This would be a great upgrade for those of us who ride aggressively
