    ZEGA Pro Topcase - black 38L

    I bought a 2013 Super Tenere recently and it came with this "like new" black 38L topcase. It will fit a full face helmet and it has the "Rapid trap mount system" and requires a special tail piece. Here is a link about the item - https://touratech-usa.com/Store/Zega-Pro-Aluminum-Touring-Topcase...

    Anyone vinyl wrapped a Super Tenere?

    These look cool but I find the big decals and wraps need a pro install so that adds to the cost. http://www.amrracing.com/catalog/sport-bike-graphics/yamaha-tenere-1200-sport-bike-graphic-kit-2012-2014-500.html

    Just bought a used 2013. Only saw pics since I bought it from an out of state dealer. Bike arrived without the center stand. Dealer wants $214.59 for a new one + more $ for the bolts, springs, etc. Thanks!

    Thanks to all. Nice forum here. Its funny to see how different bike brands and styles attract different personalities. The superbike forum can be full of cocky swinging d**ks - LOL

    Got a used 2013 from a dealer in Texas. No help with info on the bikes history. It came to me without the owners manual - I have ordered a hard copy from flea bay and looked at a few pages of the downloadable one online. Noted when it arrived --> the bike had an aftermarket kickstand, the seat...
