I need to do a brake and clutch fluid change, got a really cheap deal on Motul DOT 5.1 fluid; I know the Service Manual specifies DOT 4, I didn't buy DOT 5.1 thinking it was better, and know it's chemically compatible, but, it is more hygroscopic, and there can be viscosity differences between 4...

Last fall I posted this post to the ADV Rider forums; the idea was just to see what other Super Ténéré owners thought and/or came up with. I'm generally very satisfied with my non ES XTZ, but as I stated in the ADV Rider thread; after riding a Moto Guzzi Stelvio NTX I realized I could be a lot...

While a trivial aesthetic annoyance; I've noticed my 2014 left OEM pannier sags/lists slightly like the bottom bracket is too close to the bike. I've also noticed this isn't exclusive to my bike, but some do have them nicely and squarely mounted so the tops of both panniers are on the same...

In one of the OEM luggage threads it was mentioned that you should use a lock lube with the OEM luggage that's 'plastic safe' -- and it appears parts of the cores of these locks are in fact plastic, so that does make sense. While dry graphite seems like a safe choice, it's messy, and I have...

Anyone ever break/crack their wind screen plastic mounting bracket? I did, this thing: #23 (called "Stay 1"): I ordered and have received the replacement, but am wondering if anyone has actually done all the tear-down to get one of these out and a new one in, and can offer any tips tricks or...

I've been lurking this forum since it was inaugurated, and finally registered back in March -- as I was pretty sure this was the bike I was going for next, and... And this forum and it's members, their sensibilities, insight, and deconstruction of everything Super Ténéré got me on board, in...

I'm ready to do it, there are great deals to be had on 2014 Yamaha XT1200Z's everywhere but close to me; and right now the travel time to an out of state dealer that has the bike I want at a price that's irresistible is just too much time out of my schedule to get it done. I've never purchased...
