    Considering returning to FJR

    Hi guys. Its been some 5 years since I swapped from 2008 FJR AS to Super Tenere. ST has been no doubt much more comfortable, but I have found out that I do not do any off -road at all and there are not many gravel roads left in our country to exploit its versality. As for riding emotions, then...

    My first take on Super Tenere

    Hi guys. I was a regular follower of this fine forum for 10 years until I swapped my FJR last year to Super Tenere. I promised to post information about my impression about ST. So I did a tour to Germany a couple of weeks ago, see my write-up in ST forum here...

    the day has come, sold FJR

    I have been following this fine forum since I bought by FJR in 2009. What a wonderful place with lots of fun and advice! Now, since i bought new S10 I decided to sell my 2008 FJR AS (ES in Americas), I simply can't afford enough attention to both of them. Yamaha dealer offered me €3000 as a...

    Time for a new mistress

    After 9 years of pretty close and faithful relationship to my FJR 08 AS I decided to upgrade to mistress 2.0. Here she is on the assembly board: the Super Tenere 2018 XT1200ZE Raid edition. It will stay at the dealership until spring though (riding season is over here) and I can go there every...

    Waterpump leak, engine overheating

    I am on my 3 rd day of this year's trip around Europe. Were doing some spirited ride in Denmark when I suddenly noticed the temp gauge had only 1 bit missing from maximum! Looked at the coolant reservoir, it was empty. Dang! Got to the first car shop on the road, added coolant to the reservoir...

    zümo 595 - artist search in iphone 7

    Did my first ride this season today and tested the new Zümo 595LM + Sena 20S +iphone 7 combo. Works great, just one question though: if I want to search the artists from my iphone through Zümo I would need to scroll down them in alphabethic order and it takes a long time to arrive to those with...

    Home improvement

    Guess what was my this year's home improvement investment? Yep, its seating improvement. I did have (and still have) a heavy urge to buy the new 2016 FJR, but the offer for trade in of my current 2008 AS meant I should pay some 14 k € extra to get the same version (automatic clutch) with...

    Australia

    Just bought tickets to Singapore with the final destination to Australia. We plan to spend some 2,5 weeks in first half of April 2016 there with my wife. The only small problem being that we know not much about that part of world. I've seen quite few Australian guys around here, so some good...

    V-strom: big difference

    Today I had a first chance to have a longer ride on my new buddy, about 2 hours or so. What a difference compared to Feejer! In one hand it is much more nimble, really easy going in twisties and parking place. However, on a bumpy road it takes all the bumps pretty hard so that your body feels...

    first ride

    This is how it looks on my new V-strom 650. We did the first ride of the season with my son (left), swapped the bikes few times. Feels great! Got the V-strom as a present from my family to celebrate my 50 y of youth. For the new bike I also had to upgrade my riding gear to the Alpinestar...

    Does it sound familiar?

    Found this on another forum, considering all the mods we've done over here, our bikes fit in to the brackets very well indeed .... Hi, just got my new (insert name of bike). Wow, this is some machine – better than the reviews I read (and I read them all!). Can't believe how she handles, and...

    Lucky me SOB

    Say hello to the new member in my stable, a brand new Vstrom 650 is going to keep a nice company to already well experienced FJR08AS. I had been looking for some time for a good deal on somewhat lighter bike to explore the gravel roads around my summer house as well as commuting in the city...
