  • A friend of mine let me take a spin on his Yamaha Super Ténéré 1200. I had no time on this bike before, so this was a first ride.
    I was quite impressed to say the least.

    The Super Tenere is a bang for your buck motorcycle. I have a 2020. If you stay up on the maintenance they are bulletproof. One thing to keep in mind. They are a road bike. Concrete, asphalt, dirt, or gravel it doesn’t matter the type of road, but they are not a trail bike. If you want to ride trails buy a dirt bike.

      It will handle a lot more than you think it can. The trick is to keep it moving forward. I've had mine on some single-track, but I wouldn't make a habit of it.

      Yeah, you'll love life if you get a good trail dirt bike. Like a KTM, but if you try it on a fuel sport it'll suck.

    Best review of the S10 I have ever seen yet. Tricking the ABS like that is new to me. S10 owners I know love their bikes. Cruise control, heated grips, ES (now standard on the 2024), ABS, traction control, 6 gal fuel tank, cornering on the slab, touring comfort, shaft drive!, balance, stability, reliability, cost efficiency, Japanese quality, off roading (better than non-owners say)...this is a true hidden gem of big bore ADV.

      6 Gallon tank is not close to usable, you can use about 4.5 gallons of the tank

      Just for reference, do not use the ABS trick on GEN 2 (older than 2014) because it will cause faults in the computer and you will need to take it to the dealer.

    The firing order is 270° actually, meaning same sound than à L twin like Ducati. Got one in France, the S12 is a very good daily able to travel far, effortless with a very good reliability (especially on high mileage). Liiiiitle bit heavy, 50 pounds in excess maybe. Enjoy, Nice vidéo.😅

    My 2010 model ABS failed... rear brake stopped working. Probably caused by me not riding the bike for a couple of years. Simple work around was to bolt off the rear outlet on the ABS unit, and have a custom brake line made for the rear caliper to the master cylinder. Brakes all work well now.
    Overall a magic bike! They're heavy when you drop them, but once she's rollin the big Betsy doesnt feel heavy - low centre of gravity makes them handle nicely on the bitumen too. Thanks for great review

      I lowered my S10 because they are still tall. I used a lowering link and slide fork tubes 20mm through clamp up front. I had my 2013 since Jan 2014. His gas mileage is not accurate. Bike gets about 42 to 44 miles per gallon

    Do the common ECU map and get 20-25 hp and 18ft-lb. more in the mind range. Then it will be a different, even better bike.
