Yamaha Super Tenere – Long-Term Test Update #3 No more buffeting,motorcycle gear!
Ou Motorcycle Racing Partr Super Ténéré is already approaching 14,000 miles (well past the planned 10,motorcycle custom parts,000),Sportbike Parts, a clear indication that mileage comes easy on this popular adventure-tourer.Constantly in motion as a commuter,sport bike parts, weekend explorer and photo-chase bike,Sportbike Parts, the big Yamaha has burned through another set of tires. Avon’s Distanzias lasted 7300 miles and provided good on- and off-road performance, so we replaced them with an identical set ($428.44; www.avonmoto.com).One of our regular complaints involves airflow management. The VStream Sport-height windshield from National Cycle ($159.95; www.nationalcycle.com) provided good protection,sport bike parts, but didn’t completely eliminate the buffeting we experienced with the OEM screen.Most recently,motorcycle custom parts, we tried Wunderlich’s Tobinator Screen Adjuster ($129; www.wunderlichamerica.com). The easy-to-install brackets utilize the stock windscreen but provide excellen bar end mirror t adjustability without tools. The brackets set the screen forward of its stock location,Sportbike Gear, which allows air to pass between the headlight and windshield,motorcycle gear, smoothing airflow and reducing buffeting. The screen can be raised, lowered and tilted via adjuster knobs to suit rider preference.We took the bike to Mission Motorsports in Irvine,Sportbike Gear, California, for its 12,000-mile service. Oil, filter and four sparkplugs (two per cylinder) set us back $322.81, with another motorcycle clutch $119 tacked on for mounting the new Avons.With the aforementioned improvements, the Super T has been one of the most enjoyable long-termers we’ve had in clutch and brake levers years..spec-table margin-bottom:20px; width:100%;.spec-table td.spec-left padding:4px; text-align:right; width:50%;.spec-table td.spec-righ Motorcycle lever t padding:4px; text-align:left; width:50%;SPECIFICATIONSTotal miles:13,554N motorcycle rear sets ext service:16,000Maintenance costs (i Seat Covers ncluding tires):$2041.70Repair costs:$0Average fuel mileage:39 mpgPrice as tested (2012):$14,500Relate racing lever d content:Yamaha Super Tenere – Update #1Yamaha Super Tenere – Update #22013 Yamaha Super Tenere Details --> |
