New member in CT

[JSTRUMMER]

Hello everyone and thanks for the add.
I'm a new rider got my first bike G650GS Sertao two years ago. I decided I wanted a new Africa Twin and was about to pull the string on one until I saw 2014 S10'ES for sale on another forum. It was a great deal and looked great too with tons of extras, well I fell in love with the S10 and am looking for a 2014 plus ES.
Look forward to learning from all the S10 veterans on here.

Greetings from MA.

I know what it's like to be a new rider on a Super T. I purchased mine (4 years ago this past week) before I even had my license or permit. One aspect I never factored in when researching bikes, being new to and all, was standing up while riding. I stood up on my first ride and I've standing up ever since. Love that aspect of this bike.

So I think I found one.
Red ES not too far from me, low miles.
Priced ok but seller states it is a 2016 ES, again it's red, I thought the 2015 was red, 2016 gloss black, 2017 gloss deep blue.
Is it possible it's a 2016 ES in red!

 

[PowersUSA]

No Red ES for 2016. Not that it matters, the only difference are the color and graphics.

Thanks PowersUSA
That's what i thought, seller must be mistaken.
Who doesn't know what year their bike is?

 

[PowersUSA]

He probably bought a `15 in `16 and just assumed.

I look forward to seeing your new ride the first weekend in June I rode an 2015 ES at a demo truck day in Hartford and it was noticeably smoother than my 2012 and overall a more refined machine. You'll love it. BTW if the seat doesn't suite you I have Saddleman you can try.
