[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1431785, member: 19880"] Great information! CCT swap is no big deal. unnecessary noise and vibration would annoy me but I would have to try it out. I would check on recalls - I expect they would be the same in Canada. ECU flash sounds interesting - I will have to read up on what it does for the S10. As you say, incremental improvements (like the FJR). Are the frame and engine essentially the same or did they have a major change in 2014? Same horsepower? (108 IIRC). Can't deny that I would like the electronic suspension and cruise control but I can live without them - I have managed well enough with my '07 and my '11 FJRs. Is the Tenere engine as robust (and long lasting) as the FJR? I understand that valve checks are less fun than on the FJR. After I saw the bike at a dealer, it appeared to be a decent deal for a well farkled, low mileage bike in superb condition. A little research revealed that the price being asked is a bit high; at least compared to Ontario and points west. Certainly not a bargain but we don't see very many decent used "Adventure" bikes in the local market. I may give this one a pass or make a lowball offer but I don't think he will bite. [/QUOTE]
