Meet my new Yamaha XT1200Z Super Tenere!! Also a short note as to why I’ve been away for so long…. SPOILER ALERT: Mens Mental Health Awareness is a good thing… remember, it’s OK not to be OK.
Thanks for sticking around and I hope you enjoy the video.
Cheers,
IB

My first super Tenere I bought with panniers and top case. The first time I took them off, my wife looked at the bike and said, "it looks like something Arnold Swartzenegger would ride in an action movie.." The bike became "Arnie" at that moment. It was a 2013. Fifteen months later after riding it around Newfoundland from the Midwest, I bought a 2016 with cruise control. It is affectionately "Trekkie." First time to view your channel. No shame or embarrassment in the anxiety issues. As you with you, riding is an escape and opportunity to focus. Good health to you from the American Midwest!.
Enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing your personal experience. People need to hear that they're not there only ones going through stuff, there's always someone who has gone through it, or is going through it and they can help. Going through the valleys make the hilltops that much better! Hope all is well.
Great honest video buddy. Lovely bike and place to ride it. We’re hopefully moving to the island in Shanklin next year I’ll keep you in mind if we do. Great positive thoughts and much appreciated by those of us that have gone through same. Stay safe and keep riding buddy. Best regards Jim🏍👌👍🏻😊
If I was travelling around the world, this is the bike I'd do it on. Utterly dependable.
glad to hear that you're on the other side, keep the greasy side down…and Yama McYamaFace for the win
Subscribed!!! I appreciate your honesty and candor.
