Are the Cats in the silencer? If so you will save a ton of weight by swapping with the Akrapovics!

I think there is a cat in the factory silencer.. but there are one or two more on the bottom of the bike... The early signs ae that you dont want to remove those, I think it has something to do with the dual mod on the ECM and low and and high(er) end power... The new cans are "looking" to increase 7.5 Bhp on DYNO's over seas........ Cant wait ! :yahoo:

I have fully decided I'm going with Eva Mendes as the name of my new 2012 Yamaha Super Tenere 1200Zed! I'd thought about naming her "La Poderosa Negra Diabla", "The Powerful Black She Devil"; but I love Eva and Eva loves me (at least when mi Ojos are closed), so I cannot see breaking up a perfectly good relationship!!

And, Senor Medina "El Burrito Ballerina" does not intend to give up su Novia Senorita Salma Hayek anytime soon! Mi BMW F650GS Twin.

Eva and Salma will live in my Chandler garages next to Ingrid, my BMW R1150RT and Miss Lucy Liu, my Yamaha FJR; ah, Papa Chuy does indeed love his muy bonita Mujeres! Mas Magnifica!

Wow, both of those name sakes have really nice chassis and great curves too :yahoo: . I can see why you will be looking forward to "riding" them every day and night :rolleyes: I may have to make an exception with the S10 since don't usually name me bikes. I am thinking of calling her "Angie Harmon" since that Raven bike and her raven hair would be consistent not to mention she is just way HOT :dribble: .

He wouldn't have me so Angie was next on me list :lol: . If she wore a sheep styled wig, don't you think you might find her HOT too? :clapping: OK, now back to the Yamaha blue Kool Aid trough for me if'n I can push Beemerdons aside.

Hey No One,

Since you did such a good job getting Yamaha to bring the Super Tenere 1200 here to the states :) , could you get them to import this model too! XT660Z Tenere

LOL,,,, I didnt have anything to do with the bike heading here ! :dwarf: I just like the new scooter and like to talk about it ! :dirol:

That link is to the XT660... this is a Euro bike I think, a guy imported.. It was talked about over on the ADV site.. Yamaha is not bringing this over as far as I know. You can import one for a small fortune though! :crazy:

(also no parts, no service, no warranty, Etc)

Anyone going to be at the Dallas bike show Nov. 14 ? They will have the Super Tenere there and I think they will be giving demo rides ?

Lets get a count? Who's going ? Kinda cool to talk with other buys there !

 
I put my deposit down yesterday on the Impact Blue version. I went to Sportscenter in Longview TX (It worked out as I was in Dallas on business, and had an off day yesterday). My order was number 16 for them, and I would up with order number 160840, so I don't think the order numbers are just for the Super Tenere...

Hey, I have a small fortune.

I'm in.

 
FJR, R1, R5, FZ6R test rides only :angry2: Tenere is diplay only ;)

In TX ? I was told they would be there to ride ? Not questioning your source, but where did you 'read' they are not going to be there to ride..... If not, that kinda sux, I was looking forward <_<
