Thanks for the replies. I believe the 4,800 lumens is supposed to be from one unit that has two LED emitters on it. Although I just read it again and the description talks about a high and low beam, so something is not right with the description. Yes, I see they are out of stock and I don't...

Has anyone tried this http://stores.advmonster.com/h7-r3-led-headlight/ H7 LED bulb? I would like to go to an LED headlight, but I haven't found any information on this product's use on a Tenere. It is a rather unique design, using a mesh heatsink protruding out of the back. I see it also...

Thanks for the info. I rode to work today and it seems fine. Other than the shift rod being very slightly bent I got off easy. Fortunately no sign of any leaks either. The shifter with the folding toe piece sounds like a great idea.

Thank you for the response. As active as this forum is, I was wondering why there were no responses. There is so much knowledge out there. You are correct about diagnosing a sound. I wasn't really asking whether my transmission was damaged. More is it normal to be able to hear it turning...

Can someone advise if they can hear a noticeable noise, like gears turning, when in neutral? It stops when the clutch lever is depressed. I am sure some noise is normal, but after jamming the gearshift I am wondering if something is damaged. Thanks

I managed to drop the bike in a low speed crash when the rear end slipped into a muddy rut again. I need to stay away from those things because it is exactly how I did it last time. This time it took the kick stand spring off and rotated the gear shifter upward to about 12 o'clock...

I can't speak for the Rain model, but I really like the Gore-Tex one. Aside from the squeaking when I walk. It is more noticeable indoors where it is quiet. I purchased them through motorama.it https://www.motorama.it/en/sidi-adventure-gore-boots-P5716.htm. They are currently $325.35 and no...

I got a RAM X-Griphttp://www.rammount.com/products/x-grip and have never had a problem with it. I also added a Webgrip http://www.gpscity.com/texel-webgrip-black.html to go with it because better safe than sorry. Cell phones aren't cheap. I have not had a chance to try it yet though. Not...

That was a wonderful showing of respect and support. I would imagine it was also helpful for his comrades to be able to vent some of their emotions for his loss. It is heart wrenching to watch. I can empathize with their pain. LOD deaths are especially painful.

Yes. It is the AltRider plate.

Thanks. That sounds like good advice.

Somehow I managed to crack my front fender. I am not sure how I did it, but am suspecting maybe a rock was picked up by the front tire. Not sure if that is possible, since I am still running the stock tires. I noticed it after returning for a fairly long ride on some gravel Forest Service...

That bash plate is a work of art and it has the best coverage I have seen. Very nice set up.

Thanks for the replies. Escapefjrtist, if you get the chance, will you post a photo of the lights mounted on your Tenere? Thank you.

I believe this will answer your question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEqJsfoodfs. I ran into this video somehow after I routed a wire through that grommet for an additional tail/brake light. I guess I won't be using the luggage rack in the lowered position now. I had no idea the rack...

I don't remember if I was searching for LED MC Aux lights or if I first heard about them on advrider. There is a fair amount of chatter about their products over there. Kind of wondering why there doesn't seem to really be anything about LEDRider over here. Their vendor thread on advrider...

Has anyone mounted a pair of these lights (LR40s) http://ledrider.com/shop/?model_number=LR3540 tucked up under the headlight? I was thinking of using the PIAA bracket http://www.piaa.com/store/p/401-Yamaha-Super-Tenere-Sport-Touring-Bracket-Kit.aspx to mount them. The LR40s are slightly...

That was very nice of them. Too bad my dealer doesn't share. I may have to try another dealership ... and bring a thumb drive.

I checked with my dealer about getting one. He told me Yamaha is now only providing them to dealers, with the dealer's name embedded in it, due to issues with the file finding its way out of the dealerships. I can understand why they are doing that, but it would be nice to be able to purchase...

Yes, you can switch them out. I ordered the same setup from Motostorm.it along with the 3 lock set. The lock parts just came in a plastic bag for DIY installation. The lock cylinders are fairly easy to change out. Several small phillips screws from the inside of the case to remove the locks...
