Howdy from East TN. I got mine in yesterday's mail and mine is a 2014 purchased 5/30/14. Looks like I got an extra year Y.E.S. for free. Still need to read the fine print, but that is what it looked to me to be based on cursory review. Happy day. Rather Happy Year. Eric in East TN

Grndlb, thank you for the offer of phone assistance. I think I will get together with Trikepilot in Asheville to do this, since he is just over the mountains from me. Thank you both. Eric in East TN

Good evening from East TN. I have read a number of posts on this forum about Throttle Body Sync. My bike is a 2014 ES. I think I have read that I was supposed to do this TBS at 4000 miles, but I'm at 12K and have not done it yet. I do not have the confidence to undertake this myself, so I'm...

Ditto Yamajet's comment from S10EastTN. They are great. EricV is great and easy to work with. Informs customer each step of the way on order status. Easy to install. Look fantastic. My wife says they look very well designed, professionally done, unobtrusive, and very sturdy. Go Rumbux and...

Fred and Ed, thank you, thank you. Wonderful time and ride and people. Debbie and I had a great time. Hope I end up seeing you all in Arkansas in late October. Eric (and Debbie) in East TN

Fun folks. Fun riding. Fun social time. Thank you, organizers Ed and Fred. Thank you attendees Mark from TN, Bill from metro-St. Louis, William, Mark from Louisville, Jim from Southern IN, Brennan from Louisville, Andrew from TX, Denny (Dan?) from Poplar Bluff, Greg from IL, and I hope I didn't...

Thank you, Fredz43. I looked at route from page 3 of this post and tried to follow it. If I'm reading my maps correctly, it appears that HH dead ends at 72, but the written directions show "to hwy HH go right" with the next line being "to hwy A go right." I think I'll be able to figure it out...

Add S10EastTN to the attendees list. Eric with wife Debbie. So 2 of us. Hotel reservation made. Look forward to meeting you all there. Eric in East TN.

I have grey side cases and top case on order for 2014 ES. Excited for them to arrive soon. I think they will look good. I rode from East TN to Jason's business in Webster, NY to touch and feel and see the bags. I really liked grey, so that is what I ordered. Happy night, all. Eric in East TN

Just went to the bike to check that my Speed Sensor Housing was properly aligned. Loosened axle pinch bolt. Wife held breaker bar with 19mm allen head in right end of axle. I used breaker bar on left side axle nut. Loosened axle nut. Moved Speed Sensor Housing fore and aft. Only tiny bit of...

Eric V.: On the front, I had no problem aligning parallel marks with protrusion. I went to the garage last night to try to spin the speed sensor housing (which I think you are calling the ABS housing and which must be the same thing). No spinning, so I thought I was good. But based on reading...

Good evening from East TN: I have a few bikes I'm going to sell as I'm really only riding the Super Tenere. I can send pictures and details to anyone interested. Send me a private message if you would, and I'll respond with details and pictures. 98 Yamaha XT 225 - $1400 w/ 9700 miles 01 Yamaha...

Twisties: Thank you, again. I saw this picture. I looked at this picture, BEFORE I did the job. I didn't look again at the picture, because I could not see anything on the back side of the brake caliper. Now, in your picture, I see something right next to the axle hole. If the Speed Sensor...

Mike91: I'll keep an eye on the speed sensor cable for movement. Also, I'll see if I can rotate the speed sensor housing by hand. Neither my wife nor I could find any discernible mark on the back of the brake caliper to align the "V" with, at least where the speed sensor housing could have had...

Also, my wife just reminded me of this question I had. The right side of the axle sits in the swing arm about 1/8 inch IN from flush with the outside of the swing arm. Is that proper? Also, there is a gap (maybe 1/4 inch?) between the right side swing arm's inside and the washer that fits...

Howdy all. I just finished removing rear wheel (thank you, Twisties, for excellent tutorial), replacing rear tire with Heidenau K60 from Jaxon at Ride on ADV (thank you, Jaxon, for the tire), lubing drive shaft (can't remember for sure who wrote this tutorial, maybe ChecksWrecks?, but thank...

Done. Thanks. Eric in East TN

Howdy from East TN. Just got back to house from garage, where I spent last many hours installing front Heidenau K60 tire. I'm not experienced with tire changes, but I've done a few. That's why it took me so long. Thanks to Twisties on this forum for his incredible step by step tutorial for wheel...

Howdy all. Just reporting mileage on my stock Battle Wing tires. 9879 miles as of today, with a bit of mileage remaining without being dangerous. Can't wait to see what I'll get out of the K60s that I got from Jaxon at RideOnADV. I ride mostly gently. That mileage from the original tires...

Good evening all: I bought my 2014 on May 30, 2014, new, 2.5 months ago, 5/30/14. Two weeks of that time, maybe three, I was on vacation and not home to ride. Today hit 9879 miles. I am still on the original Battle Wing tires, and they still have some miles left on them. But I'll probably get...
