My ST is going next spring to be replaced by a Tracer 9 GT. The ST is just too big for a lightweight like me and I'm not getting any younger. I have dropped her three times during ownership and have been lucky enough to have someone help me get her up again. I wished there was a shaft drive mid...

"Tyre Pressure Idiot" that is what I am, let me explain: Up until a recent revelation I have thought my bike's tendency to pull into corners was normal, however when my Range Rover warned of low tyre pressures and I booked it in to the Land Rover garage for a sensor check I suddenly thought I...

Just a note to say how happy I am with the flash done by Wiz Performance in the UK. Sent the ECU off for programming to be returned within 3 days. £140 and worth every penny, it makes the bike behave much better. Wish I had had it done when I bought the bike brand new in 2016.

Cruise Control would switch on but not "activate". I found the rear brake light was on permanently. I cured it by taking the rear brake switch apart and found a "corroded/broken spring inside, which meant the rear brake light stayed on when I used the rear brake. Replaced the spring and the...

Is there a new Super Tenere coming out next year?

Hi, 1 am hoping someone can throw some light on the problem I have with my CC. My 2016 XT1200ZE has developed an intermittent CC fault, during operation the CC symbol lights up and remains constant but the "SET" symbol will only come on occasionally. I have yet to check anything so was hoping a...

After reading through, what I thought was twaddle, on a You Tube post about the side mounted radiator on an XT1200, I thought it would be a good idea to discuss it on this forum. IMHO the rad position is perfect, at a standstill all heat is blown away from the rider whereas my friend who owns a...

Back in April I planned a trip around the north of Scotland only to get caught in a Blizzard near Cape Wrath, This put an end to the tour and I limped back down to Inverness which was a shame because I was really enjoying it. I should not have gone because the forecast did warn me but I had...

I have put my pin in the map and updated my profile, but it does not show up on "Members Map", can someone help me please?

"Hello Baby" the words I utter every time I walk into the garage and see my bike. If I start calling her by name I think it will be time to get a "check up from the neck up", but I can't help it, this bike gives me loads of fun and I cant wait to get on her again (oh er steady). After my regular...

I spend some time watching You Tube motorcycle crashes in the hope they will instil caution into my riding and I think they do to some extent. Lots of bikers in these videos say "are you kidding me?" when involved in a crash, most of which involve motorcycles hitting other vehicles. I notice in...

Title says it all really, I've replaced the original nuts to save the threads rusting.

ST is in for a new rear wheel rim and swing arm repair after a spoke came loose. My dealer got on the case promptly and let me have a 700 Tracer as a loaner. I am set on shaft drive bikes but when the 900 and then 700 Tracers came out I found myself quite interested in them even though I would...
