    New place no garage-smallest door opening you've fit your S10 through?

    You guys(gals) have been running the bike with the garage door closed - too often! ::010:: I'm renting, the gate is wooden, owner not cool. Plenty of space behind the fence to turn the bike around and do the exit dance for departures. That said, I have a new idea--> Change the townhouse: I'm...

    New place no garage-smallest door opening you've fit your S10 through?

    I am about to rent a new place. If I get the one that works the best for the family, I have off street parking but not garaged or covered. However, there is a wooden fence that swings open and a nice sized area to keep the bike BUT the opening is 3.18ft( 38.16in ) The Super Tenere is...

    Super Tenere or FJR? Trip planned

    I have an 05 FJR and a '12 SuperT. Just did 14 states in 10 days.Indiana to Utah, Arizona through the panhandle to NC, back to Indy. The Super T was flawless and I didn't get any speeding tickets. I have to admit the Super T has some unspeakable thing that is compelling for a long trip. When I...

    FJR owners...does my Super Tenere really handle better than my FJR1300?

    I thought I knew, now I KNOW..LD ride!!

    Finished up with a trip to US129. Dragged pegs ::015:: My goal was to do it on the FJR last year but it didn't happen. This year, I was just enjoying riding and it happened. I really think the SuperT handles better and allows me to be more smooth. It's weird..moreso than the FJR1300.
