Glad it was useful

Thank for taking the time to put this together. Between yours and Tom's Tinkering's video, I'm convinced I can do this job myself. Also, thanks for the links to the required kit in the description.

Happy to help. Tom's video was one of the ones I used as a guide myself 🤣

Nice video! Thanks for putting it together! I just got a 2016 model, so I am learning everything I can about it because I am sure I'll have to do mine someday.

Thanks 😁 Congrats on the new bike! Fortunately the super tenere is pretty easy to work on so far. 😁

Nicely done project

Thanks for the detailed video! To get the front wheel off the ground on bikes with a center stand, I often just set up some concrete blocks near the rear wheel and strap the rear of the bike down to them.

Nice. So you're saying, the real mvp of this project is the center stand lol 🤣 For real though, having a center stand is totally worth it. It opens up so many options.

Nice work, I switched to SKF seals, they last much longer than others, while the slider was off I slipped a o-ring so I can easily check sag. Have Fun!

Ooh, that's a great idea for checking the sag. Wish I knew about that trick beforehand lol

This is no simple job. Nicely done

My 2013 Super Tenere had leaking forks due to corroded chrome on the fork legs. Probably from stone damage. Rebuilt them with new fork tubes. Worth fitting rubber gaiters over the lower chrome legs.

The 2014 and newer model has an updated dash. I'm not sure if there are any good aftermarket boards or not.

Goodday next do a ES model ride safe

yes I need to chance fork oil in my ES model not shure about motors in them .

I liked your datailed video. The only thing I didn't fully understand was how much oil to use when refilling the forks. Any additional details you can offer would be great. Thanks.

The level is a bit variable depending on how much residual oil is in the tubes. The Final level is set by a distance from the top of the tube. I forget how much I used as an initial fill value, but I'd suggest just getting one of the oil level syringes. Then you just over fill it and suck it back down to the level needed.

How many miles did you have on your bike when you noticed the leak?

Maybe 13k ish? Not certain. I'm the second owner and the previous owner put the bulk of the miles on it, so I'm not sure what type of miles those were.

Yeah I'm not sure. It might have just gotten some grit past the dust seal. I may have been able to get it out with a seal saver. But I figured I'd just do the replacement so that I knew what I was working with, and because I had a big trip coming up and didn't wanna risk it.

@@jubjubs Of course. Not worth risking it. Forks are expensive. haha

Way to complicated, just loosen the bottom bolt for just a seal and oil change.
