That's how I do it too

on Goldwing I usually cancel cruise by just a very light touch of the clutch lever, but my Tenere must work different than most Tenere’s, I have to pull the clutch lever much farther than the Goldwing, maybe there is some kind of adjustment for that ?

Thx for the pics of the hugger. Been wanting to add one.
As on other ride-by-wire throttles, pushing it all the way forward will cancel the cruise without slipping the clutch or flashing a brake light.
I use 200lbs per helmet, and 50lbs for luggage as a starting point; you'll have to experiment to find YOUR setting(s). I wouldn't call it ugly, but maybe unfinished. Still love the blue rims. (your first farkle matches perfectly) It depends if I'm solo or have a passenger as to how I turn off the cruise. Solo....just back off the throttle, and use as much of that wonderful engine braking as I need. W/passenger....slightly accelerate as I'm lightly tapping the back brake....slowly roll off of the throttle....smooth as silk.

Picked up a '18 today. Time to de-farkle the '12 and make the new one mine!

What part of AZ? I'm assuming the southern portion.

While your out in Arizona I highly recommend riding 191 between Springerville and Clifton Arizona, it’s all paved and very curvy over a bunch of mountains, when you get to Clifton you will ride through one of the biggest copper mines in the world, I checked the miles through the mine and it was over 10. Watch out for deer and open range cattle.

Lucky man!!! Agree with ya, I much prefer my all black scheme 12 over the new colors.
It is a 2009 Kendon 2 rail, I removed one and moved the other to the middle. (I prefer to have the weight centered, although Kendon says it isn't necessary.) The two cargo boxes are bolted on and provide waterproof storage. I also used the panniers strapped on for more storage. (My wife has to bring a ton of shoes!) I built a more substantial ramp that works in the middle. It still stows under the rear. I would prefer an enclosed trailer, but this stores in the spaces I have available and it tows so well you hardly know it is there.

Got the barkbusters and cold weather storm shields on. Should provide alot better wind and general protection then the stockers. Should make for a more comfortable commute in the cold am.
Threw in the YTZ14 Yuasa. Seems to have cured my crank / no start issues. Was skeptical about the low crank volts pulling from the ecm, but seems to have been real. So far, so good. Starts up quick and no issues with crank and throttle down to get her going.

A year ago I had a series of "Crank/No-Start" events with my 2014.
I replaced the original battery with a fresh YTZ14 and have not had that issue happen since.
Added some Mosko Moto Bags and tank bag.... 
Those bags look like they came from PA! Hope you enjoy them. 
Did you have them on a Super T? Where did you put the exhaust side strap? The only place I could find is very close toThose bags look like they came from PA! Hope you enjoy them.
the exhaust around the passenger peg mount.
