This is something that has been bothering me for a while and thought I'll bounce this off with long term S10 owners before I talk to a mechanic. Last summer the front wheel of my S10 developed a low hum at speeds above 40 MPH last summer (2014 ES with odo 50,000 kms). It hasn't impact the...

I have been adding a few accessories in preparation for my upcoming Alaska trip and thought I'll share a few pics with you for your thoughts: 1) Spare Gas Can: I replaced the passenger seat with 1.3 gallon (5 litre) hard plastic gas can (Amazon). It's similar to Rotopax but shorter in length...

I have the OEM panniers and now thinking of adding the OEM top box as well (merely to match the side boxes). This is in preparation for my cross-country trip. I would like to avoid using a tank bag if possible and thought this would be a good addition to carry the frequently needed essentials. I...

I would like to have feedback from anyone who rides a '14 S10 (tall windshield) and uses a Shoei Hornet helmet I love the looks of the helmet but unfortunately I have heard so much about excessive noise levels and wind buffeting from the peak, I am inclined to get the RF1200 instead. I would...

Apologies ...I may have already posted this under 'member intro' section as well. Hello all, it's been a while. I am planning a coast to coast round trip in late May 2015 on my 2014 S10 ES ::014:: This is my first 'long trip' (longest trip earlier was 5200kms- Vancouver to LA and back) and...
