Please add me to your list. I definitely plan to be there.

+1 on this. It would make a lot more sense to me. But Aren't 07 and 09 about the same weight? I want a light middle weight with the 270 degree twin.

I bet it will be good for that. Especially with a suspension upgrade. You can tell I was hoping for a mid-sized adv bike.

I won't even go look at that bike in the image. Compare to the standard FZ-09. It's the same bike with a different fairing. I had an FZ-09 for 110 miles this summer. Nice hot rod but I couldn't wait to take it back to the dealer. It definitely is not ADV material. The drain plug is on...

Thank you for the comment. So what is the battery type that will be the most efficient as it gets colder? I want to ride all winter. I carry motocycle jumpers but what if I'm camped off road and AAA can't make to where I am?

I heard that Shorai loses it's charge when it gets cold. And I heard this after I bought one for my WR450. I've never had it really cold and I usually kick start it first so I haven't seen an issue. Have you had yours really cold and noticed it lose charge?

I have the 1 gallon and just got the 1.75. Last weekend I used the 1 on my WR450 to ride the Moab White Rim Trail. It wasn't quite enough to ride WFO the hole 100 miles, so I got the 1.75 this last week. I like the way they stack if I need both. And, I'm thinking they will come in handy next...

Ordered. My back is going to like this mod.

Last weekend was first long ride (850 miles) on Parabellum 22". I'm 5' 10" and 30" inseam. I could use an inch or tow taller. Really cut down on wind noise. I did not know the trans was so noisy.

If you don't want to drill new mounting holes, and you want to keep the new adjustable mount with device bar, make sure you get one specifically for the 2014. I got am MRA and needs to be drilled to fit. Still debating what I'll do. Twisted Throttle told me to return it, but I want a better...

This thread is great especially for a noob. I rode just over 870 last weekend. Not only did I hurt Sunday night, I was in a little pain all week. I will definitely be in line for a set of the 2014 risers. I got the Seat Concepts cover and foam which is really nice but I can't sit on the back...

I always have good luck with Ace or True Value. Best of all it's right in town so you have it today instead of waiting for UPS/FE. And, you're supporting a local retailer.

Is that a 2014 ST? If yes, did you have to remove the stock windshield mounting frame that includes the device bar to get the mounting holes in the MRA to align with the screw holes? If no then you have a different MRA windshield than I do. I'm planning to call Twisted Throttle today to see...

The MRA VarioTouringScreen Windshield For Yamaha XT1200Z Super Tenere doesn't fit the 2014 without making some changes. I bought it from an indie shop. Nice guy that gives discounts. The real problem is that it's drilled for the earlier model without the windshield frame. So when you take that...

I've had snakeskin on my road racer for a few years. Works great. No slippage. Got the ST and was in great pain after about an hour of riding. I was sliding forward on each deceleration. Snakeskin was the obvious solution. Put it on my panniers too. But I'm not sure that little center piece...

Nice thread. My inReach Explorer arrived yesterday same time as my iPad Mimi waterproof mount. Don't have it fired up yet but plan to have time this weekend. I also plan to pair my Mini with it so I can use the earthmate app for GPS. There's so much to learn about this setup that I'm hoping to...

Nick Stoltec makes a two brake line kit for the FZ-09. Maybe we could pester him to make one for the S10? Or am I not understanding the issues with making a kit?

Got my new S10 week and a half ago. Put almost all of the first 600 on it in the first 4 days, then it's been just enough to get to 593 since. All is good and really like the bike. I had an '08 FJR for a few years that saw mainly commute service but it was definitely a pleasure to ride. I...

Got my first ST last weekend, a 2014. 520 miles in first 4 days. Easy neutral.

I bought an FZ09 last week. So fast and fun but the wrong kind of bike. Took it back Saturday. Now I have new ST. Got a good tip for cases to use while learning to dirt ride. Go to Goodwill and get two hard sided suit cases of appropriate size. So I ordered the mounting kit and will hit Goodwill...
