My Grandfather once told me:@MFP has a tiny horn.
“It is not the size of the horn that is important but the sound that it makes is what matters most!”

Time for a cup holder. And modular helmet!Today I commuted to work on my S10 for the first time. I'm new to motorcycles, so of course I'm new to my S10. Everything is new to me! The only issue is...in my car I grab a cup of coffee for work...have to make adjustments to that routine. I'm willing to adapt!
Did you purchase from Jon at Accelerated tech?After nearly a month of being layed up with a blown shock, and leaking fork seals, my Super Tenere is finally road ready. It also got valve shims and a new CCT, rear tire and brakes. Hyperpro shock was ordered June 6 and arrived 27th.View attachment 56740
Yes, got it from Accelerated. They were very helpful, had it custom built in Holland and drop shipped to me to arrive before my trip. Totally impressed with the performance without touching the fine tune get.Did you purchase from Jon at Accelerated tech?
I will be sending my Yacugar (same as hyperpro) out next winter for a refresh and it will be good to know he has done one for a Tenere. I think I want to have it revalved slightly and am hoping he has the some stack data on hand. Curious to hear how you like it after you get some miles on it.
Thanks to you and EricV, and a string plug, I got a few more months and 2100+ miles out of that beat up E07 Dakar. ~9k total. Put an old one back on that had about that much left. The plug looked perfect on the inside. It was a bear breaking the bead.That tire looks like the tread still has a few thousand miles in it. How about a worm?

Curious @gv550 what did the shock set you back for pricing? It's time for me to get mine serviced or swapped out.Yes, got it from Accelerated.

It was costly, but I asked for expedited shipping and there was discussion about overtime charge to get it built ahead of que but I needed it and they delivered. The hydraulic adjuster is extra too. It was (cough) $1700 C all in.Curious @gv550 what did the shock set you back for pricing? It's time for me to get mine serviced or swapped out.
Ha, and i didn't take my own advice. Found a similar nail in my equally worn rear E07 Dakar, plugged it with a worm, but then decided to take it off and replaced it with a fresh Shinko for a 3,000+ mile trip. I already had the new tire and didn't want to risk hauling home on a slick.Thanks to you and EricV, and a string plug, I got a few more months and 2100+ miles out of that beat up E07 Dakar. ~9k total.

Like the idea of using the book as a cushion for the jack. Going to steal that.I just finished torquing the last bolt on the bike on my first tire change. Original Battlewings lasted 13748 miles. I could have squeezed another 1500-2k out of the front. No odd wear or bumps. Rear was flat and just about to hit the wear bars.
Spooned on some Michelin Road 5 Trail. Ill keep everyone posted if anyone is interested. Have a great ride everyone.
