I checked into a hotel in Green River, UT and was warned by the locals of bike theifs and vandalizers. So my tenere is cozy in my room with me tonight. First time for everything I guess. Lol

Looks like this year it is in Clayton, Oklahoma in October. Found this on my facebook and thought I'd share. :-\ http://forums.rideok.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=2119 Here is some more detail taken from their facebook. This is our 10th annual dual sport ride (formerly Ride Oklahoma) held in the...

I've found a surprising benefit of being a Tenere owner. The ladies love the bike! Just about everywhere I go I get compliments on the bike from younger women. I've even given a few random 20 something year old girls rides on old Babe. It's obvious that its the bike they like, because I...

Went out to the lake to night to try to rack up some miles and get to 600 by Saturday. I was driving down into a canyon when a freaking fawn jumped out in front of me. I'm glad old babe has some good brakes, or I'd still be scraping deer carcass off of him. Can't wait to get those Denali 2's...

I've been experimenting on how to get the best gas mileage on the bike. Not to get to NASCAR on everyone, but I've noticed that while drafting a semi I get around 59 mpg in sport mode. If I draft a car it drops to around 50 mpg, and with no wind assist around 44 mpg. I thought this was...

I got my bike today, and after putting on 150 miles here are my first impressions 1. Seat does slope forward if in low setting- Solution keep in high setting. I'm sure aftermarket, more comfortable ones are to follow. 2. I see a set of ROX Risers in my future- Bars are too low for me and...

I ordered some farkles from Twisted Throttle today. I can't wait to put it all on my new bike! BC.TRS.00.004.8000 Bags-Connection "City" Quick-Lock Tankbag for SW-M TRE.110 Electrification Kit for Bags-Connection Quick-Lock TRE.00.475.102 SW-MOTECH Electrical Topring...

I've begun my farkling and I'm getting ready to take the bike on a long trip in a few weeks. I plan on taking a large duffle and placing it where the back seat is and over my panniers. Are there any good tie down spots using the OEM luggage rack, or would I be better served to go ahead and...

I've never ridden a bike anywhere close to the ocean before, and I hear one must take certain precautions with your bike when you will be around salt water. Some of you guys probably have a good idea of what I should do to protect my new Tenere from corrosion. So if any of you guys that live...

I thought it might be fun to actually get a count of those that have taken Delivery.

Well we've all kidded around about it or speculated about it, but have any of you picked out a name for your bike? Let's see what you got? Personally I haven't named mine yet, and probably won't until I've spent some time in the saddle. I got a pretty decent slogan though. Yamaha Super...

I have a question regarding the PDP plan. We all worked out our individual deals with our dealers and they gave us a dollar amount out the door. What happens to the $500.00 deposit? Is that subtracted from the negotiated price, or do dealers count that is money in the bank? I've never done...

Has anyone ever used this luggage before? I like the material the caribou and pelican cases are made of, but I'm looking for a top load case. I also like the looks and the locks on these. Anybody know any place to get these? Thanks Brad

I think this guy has created one of best looking Super Tenere's I've seen yet. Check it out the link below,if you havn't already. It's in Italian, but the pictures are nice. ;D http://www.clubtenereitalia.it/viewtopic.php?t=26591&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=420

Let me preference this by saying that I have no experience with upgrading exhaust on motorcycles, I've always settled for the factory can. That being said, I'm really considering upgrading when my new S10 arrives. Since upgrading the exhaust is a rather expensive prospect, I'd like to get...
