    S10 not running, strange thing happening

    MY 2013 will turn over but not start. I suspect the fuel injector are not opening because plugs are dry. I opened up fuel pump as you have and cant see and dirt. Is the tea bag style filter was clean on the outside but I am not sure if dirty on the inside. How can you tell if fuel...

    I have not done the factory recall, I read about it and didn't think I needed it because it has ran fine for years.

    2012 XT1200 will start, but won’t run

    I am pretty sure fuel injection is not opening at all. I am not sure why. I disconnected fuel line on rail and when I turn key fuel pumps out of hose. When I check plugs they are dry. I tried starter fluid in intake and bike started. Once starter fluid was burnt off it stops of course...

    Hello Dirt Dad, I was in the military too, and originally settled in Plymouth NH and rode many of the good roads from there to the Maine Coast. Now living in Utah I get over to Colorado once in awhile. I still have a lot to explore over there. The Bulter Maps street or trail maps are great...

    What big trip's planned?

    This past summer I met two young German men about 23 years old. They were in month 4 of a 6 month travel around the world. We met in Utah at the Bryce Canyon campground. They had only one bike, a Honda African Twin in very rough shape but road worthy. I was amazed they had the goal to travel...

    Will Yamaha Increase the S10 Power? If so, When?

    Why the Speedo Overstatement?

    My 2013 seems to be off by 7mph at 30mph, multiple street radar signs I have passed by say I am doing 30mph. My speedometer says I am doing 37 mph. Fustrating for me. I still have on stock OEM tires.

    I may be crazy but I traded my Tenere for a new BMW R1200RT

    I agree with BMAC threads opinion,, the taller you are the BMW is the more comfortable choice between and RT and a Wing. I would say 5' 10" would be perfect height for either bike,,,,, below 5' 9" and the WING is great,,, over 6' and BMW RT is easy to touch ground regardless of which seat and...
