    I purchased my Super Tenere in 2020 and it’s been the best bike I’ve owned in all of my bikes. It literally does everything and does it well. This bike is a keeper!

    Great review!
    I recently found a 2013 with low miles. Agree with all so far, especially the vibrations. Working on solutions for that now.
    How is the clutch pull on the newer model? Mine is stiff and a real chore while sitting at a light.
    Enjoy your New Mule!

      Hi William,
      Thanks you for the lovely comment. The clutch pull is quite hard, but it’s definitely better than the outgoing model. Love this bike. Today im are out camping ⛺️ in Ireland with my wife. She says she loves this bike in every aspect as a pillion

      Hi… mine is a 2014… there are vibrations on the bike and I guess they are quite normal on these bikes. Nothing like a single cylinder thumpers or Harley’s… and I guess the bike was unchanged from 2014 till the end of manufacturing

    I had 2011 BMW GS and now I have a 2017 ST I like my ST a lot better...One thing I suggest is get the madstad windshield and bracket it makes a huge difference

    • @rideswithrichie
      @rideswithrichie  Рік тому +1

      I so want to buy the Madstad windshield and bracket. But it’s so expensive to buy it from the US. Specially to import it into Ireland. I wish someone could help me to buy one in America and ship it over. So that I don’t have to pay the ridiculous customs here. I’m willing to pay for windshield and shipping cost

      I’ll wait for a few more days and bite the bullet I guess. It would be lovely to have that windshield for summer. I’m looking at the used ones as well. I had madstad windshield on my Tiger 800 and loved it. I had bought it used for very cheap on EBay. Hopefully I’ll find one for super tenere as well 😂

      The import tax and vat right now is more than 23percent these days. I know it sounds crazy. But it is what it is. Shipping is not much since I can use my AddressPal account

    This sounds like one happy owner. The super tenere is a very good bike but also very heavy. Don’t drop it because you will need to do some fitness to lift it up.

      @@aronob I totally agree. I had dropped my fully loaded tiger 800 twice on the same trip. Once it was dead easy for me to pick it up but the 2nd time I struggled. It had fallen to the right side the 2nd time. But managed to pick it up alone. No help. A bit of practice and right technique will do the job.

    Hiya, im very tall which is why im considering buying this bike, i can only really get tourers because of my height, but am currently on a versys 650. I like riding fast in the corners and the versys loves it. But how is this for faster pace riding, taking corners fast etc?

    • @rideswithrichie
      @rideswithrichie  Місяць тому +1

      Hi,
      Thank you for watching my videos. Since you are tall I guess this bike should suit you. It has 2 seat settings. You can adjust the seat height by adjusting the bracket under the seat. I guess there is an after market option to lower the foot pegs as well.
      It handles very well around the twisties. But remember this does not have the power which 1200GS or KTM has. But this has got plenty if you are coming from Versys 650.
      This bike handles very well

    If it doesn't have the ECU flash you need to do it. It transforms the bike in a very good way. It's really worth it.
