One of my good friends and riding buddies is a retired flat tracker from the Kenny Roberts era and he too rides an XTZ Tenere. Among other bikes. Robert E Lee lives in Burleson TX, in a nice community too and has a garage and shop stuffed full of his old racing bikes and Mach Three Hair on Fire...

Gordon, if you're still needing someone to do and install documentation I'll be happy to help you out. I'll pm you my contact info. Been looking for a TPMS for my Tenere for a while now. I like the inside the rim monitors. Clifford

Rode the Three Sisters roads a few weeks ago with my Son and his Church's Motorcycle Group. Three Sisters is a series of twisty roads in Bandera Texas between Austin and Fredericksburg. It was a fun ride because he pulled my 13 YO Grand Daughter out of school to go with us for the 4 day ride...

OK sorry for the long delay but just got off the phone with my Dealer. I do a LOT of business with their parts Dept, so theyl shoot straight with me. Here's the scoop! The Recall is for the headlight wiring harness for possible fire hazard. All 2013 and up models. Going to go down next week...

Well if if will help my S10 is a 2014. I have no clue what it's for.

Today, January 18th 2016, and I just got a call from my Dealer about a recall on my Tenere. He couldn't tell me what if was for. I asked! Great, let's hope they don't want it for 6 months. And there is no way I'm going to park it until they get parts. Unless they want to buy it back. No...

Ok, I may be different. But, that's not that unusual in my world. Before I retired I rode motorcycles 40 miles one way to work every day. Retired almost 6 years now and I still run into town on one of my bikes when weather permits! Otherwise I drive my WVO Diesel powered Isuzu I Mark that I...

Been having too much fun riding it to build a trailer. But I did loan out my one wheel trailer I pull with my KLR to a friend this week. He's headed out to Wisconsin today. And something bulky he wanted to take to someone. Maybe this Winter I'll have time to figure out a hitch for the Yamaha...

I saw this when you first posted but was headed out the door on a trip and didn't have time to respond. So, today I'm looking through and I see it again and it raises some questions? First off let me say that not all Mod's are relevant to everyone based on their needs and location. I live in...

I'd be up for that ride if one of you does it again.

I'm just west of you a few miles. If you ever ride 407 out of Justin headed west to 287, you'll ride right by my house and shop. If you see a white S Tenere' running around Roanoke and Trophy Club with a guy in a white helmet and neon yellow high viz jacket, that will be me. My son lives in TC...

One of my friends 2000 Harley Ultra Glide front brakes locked up on him a few weeks ago on his way to Sturgis.. He was riding through Nebraska and hit seam in the pavement and the front brakes locked up and threw him down and broke his leg. Totaled his big hog. To hear him tell it it, was a high...

I wonder if this Ad was written by the guy on the Harley that tried to show off in front of me today. We were both about to enter a Highway on ramp, he from one direction me from the other. I was ahead of him by about 50 feet to the turn and he tried to get in front of me and let me hear his...

I have two! First one I bought an 06 new and used it for commuting after I totaled my Crotch Rocket. I've put close to 90 K miles on it so far. Did a round trip commute of 80 miles a day. Added an IMS tank and only bought gas once a week. Ridden it on most of the good American Trail Routes...

Personally, I'm one of those Guys that even though I could afford a "store Bought" set of panniers I'll probably build them from scratch before I'll shell out $1500+ for a set of boxes that in my world are sure to get bend and bruised. Been this way all my life with almost everything I own. I...

I don't know! They were Navy Surplus. I've had then for years. Here's the stamp on the lid

Had to find the reflective tape picture and here it is from the back. Lights up like a Motor Officer from a distance. Really jeeps cars off my backside.

Sorry it took so long to get back here with these. My quick release ammo box panniers! I removed all but the end latches. hinged the lids to the boxes at the inside for easier access. Added tie down loops to the lid inside and outside and put LED Brake lights on back. I added reflective tape to...

Somehow stumbled across this old thread and thought I should tell about my encounter the other day. Was sitting at an outdoor restaurant last weekend and had a guy on a new GS water boxer park next to me and walk by my table. Since we were the only two Motorcyclist there and my Helmet and...

For grins last week I installed my KLR's Ammo Can Panniers on my Tenere to check out the fit and leg room. I forgot to take into account that the DZUS fasteners I used needed more shims to hold the Cans on securely to the Yamaha's rack. And sure enough I hit the first railroad track crossing...
