Preamble: After we lost a chunk of the rear wheel of our Ténéré at speed during the '19 IBR we lost confidence in it to the extent we were wincing ever time we went over any sort of bumps. That being the case we decided we'd get rid of it so last July I bought a 1250 GSA with the intent of...

Well it's not off-road but we had a good ride on our Tenere during the IBA European Tour and the write-up is now on our web site. Leg 1 and leg 2. Kevin

Is anyone else having problems changing down into the bottom three gears on the 2014 model while on the move? Fourth to third is difficult, third to second more difficult, I'm pushing hard on the pedal to get it to go into first and once there getting it to go into neutral is pretty much...

While riding n the Dolomites last week something was grounding out quite hard on the road when going round tight bends - it frightened the life out of me first time it happened - and I subsequently discovered it's the rear of the AltRider belly pan. Now I know it's there to protect the engine so...

I've just fitted a Healtech SpeedoHealer to correct the inaccurate speedo reading (it was, er, 'fun' but that's another story). It works perfectly but now the Yamaha gear indicator doesn't work. If I reset the SpeedoHealer so it's not altering the speed signal the gear indicator comes...

I wanted to fit a set of Tenere mirrors to our GSA so purchased a set of these adapters. The left-hand mirror fits perfectly but the right-hand one won't fit at all. Our S10 isn't here at the moment so I can't check it. Does the RH mirror have a reversed thread? Thanks. Kevin

I need to fit some metal valve stems so I can use the Garmin TPMS and while I'm at it I thought I'd switch to right-angle stems as they make putting air in so much easier. It looks like there's enough space on the rear wheel but I don't think there's enough clearance on the front for the nut...

I'm having 'stuff' from our 2011 moved to our 2014 before I pick it up but I'm not entirely sure what fits and what doesn't. I think most of it does but I've just looked at the Touratech site which says their handlebar risers fit 2010-2013. I've no idea what make the ones on our bike are. Has...

Has anyone got a reasonably-priced (i.e. not expensive!) XT1200Z OEM shock laying around they'd like to part with? UK side of the pond would be best but if you have one in the US you're willing to ship please let me know. Thanks. Kevin

Does anyone make a waterproof tank bag for the Ténéré? I'm not after one that has a waterproof cover but one that is inherently waterproof. I couldn't find anything with Google but it's worth an ask. If it fitted on the fuel cap ring so much the better as the bike has an expanded fuel tank and...

Used XT1200Z seats wanted. Preferably located in the US but I can always send them to the US if they're from elsewhere. Kevin

I see Tim got here before me. We (my wife and I) bought a 2011 S10 a couple of weeks ago. We already have a GSA that we really like and I wanted something similar but not quite the same. 1600 or so miles in and we're really enjoying the bike so I think it's here to stay...until, perhaps, we...
