Trader Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 The superTenere looks like it was meant for a sporty "enduro" style ride. Meant to take it anywhere. The riding position is not much different from a first gen....but can't imagine putting a back rest and hiway pegs on it any more than on a crotch rocket!! As to style? The bags looke like equipment cases someone stuck on as an afterthought!
ragtop69gs Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Looked to me as though they are going for the BMW ST look. I could not ride it with that riding position, that's why I don't have a crotch rocket.
Morev4 Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Funny when I bought my new 99 on May1 ,1999 it seemed like a cutting edge but yet a simple bike. N0 new Wing or Ultra yet, heck I was still using cassette tapes. I can't believe that with the bike only discontinued a couple years ago Mama Yama is doing this. Oh well I am going to run my 4 Ventures into the ground and then get a convertible and travel the Country with my 26 year old wife, when I'm 75, so no matter. Don't tell Diane about the 26 year old wife, I want to keep that a secret from her until I invent that time machine she will be involved in testing.
Silverado6x6 Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 I have a notion of just buying a new Vmax and with my skills i can take the fairing from any of my Ventures and make the Vmax into a touring bike. A slap in the face to Yamaha, a challenge.
