I did but, there really is no comparison, the FJR just makes more hp and torque everywhere. They are completely different bikes, with different approaches to a similar mission (covering a lot of distance) and I am ok with that. If I can sort out the seat issue, this will likely be my next...

Ok, so I got to take a new Tenere out for a short ride and here is what I found in no particular order. With the seat in the high position, and me scooting back on to the wider part of the seat, I am quite comfortable. That is great for riding around but when I came to a stop, even with my...

I plan on hitting some unpaved terrain in my travels. I have a test ride of the Tenere after work today. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Man I miss my '84 XT 600, I have tried almost every year to buy it back from my buddy but he wont budge, even though he rarely rides it!

I am like 1tonn, same height and similar inseam. I have a test ride setup this week so I will know more after the ride, putting the seat in both positions. I really like the bike, I really like Yamaha, I really like the price, I really like the dealer network that you wont find with Ducati...

It's not the height of the seat, it's where the bodywork is on the bikes. On the S10 where I am sitting in the picture, my knees are touching the plastic "shrouds". Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

No sweat, and it is hard to gauge a persons intent sometimes on a forum. Too answer your question, I already had the case, it had been sitting on a shelf for about 6 months with the tags still on it collecting dust. Extra bonus I can lock it easily.

Cortech has their Dryver bag that is similar, sort of pricey but a nice setup. I am currently using the coupler (cost about $18 on http://www.amazon.com/Cortech-Ring-Lock-Mount-Dryver-Tank/dp/B004RE5B7C) with a small Pelican case on my FJR, and if things go well and I get an S10, it will switch...

My dealer finally got another S10 in so I got over there right away and sat on it. Took a pic to show where I am on the seat when my knees touch the plastic. What do you guys think? I have a test ride scheduled for early next week which will give me a better feel for things.

Thanks for this tip, I should know better having an FJR.

Sounds like I need to resit on one, which wont happen until next weekend since I am heading out of town for work. I probably was sitting up on the tank a bit I suppose, more dirt bike like, which just felt natural to me when I got on the bike. I really like Yamaha in general, ever since my '84...

Hello all, I really like the S10 and have been contemplating switching from my current ride, an '07 FJR but, I sat on one today and my knees are pretty much buried into the plastic of the body work. I am not super tall at 6'3" and I am fairly proportionate, are there any options out there to...
