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

The Tenere Lady does sound nice, looks yummy too! 🙂
Sorry to hear things have not been great mate, I hope you have a good grip of things now and can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Hope the move went smoothly, I've spent many nights bobbing about in boats at Cowes, you on the east or west side?
Grats on the new bike mate 🙂

Thanks for the video. I rode cruisers and sport bikes for about 20 years. I gave it up after turning 40 and bought a MX 5. It's an awesome little car, but I found myself thinking about riding again. So here I am at 50 years old contemplating going back to riding with a Yamaha like yours. I understand where you're coming from with the "it's alright not to be alright". Going for a ride in the country used to really help clear my head. The Mazda does a good job, but I still have the urge to twist a throttle. Again, thanks for the video.
The most boring adventure bike on the market today totally overlooked by the public for good reason , what possessed you to buy one ide even take the 2020 700cc over that one , cant wait till yam drop it perhaps they will then bring out the MT 10 Tracer we all want
Just found your channel. Subscribed 👍
Same bike. I came from a fazer, and wished a fjr, but the st1200 is easier and more comfy. Perfect bike for travel, no need for more power, perfectly balanced, good mileage, and not too tall.
Best wishes to you and your bike.
You give a good advice in the video.
Nice bike. I have a 2017 and it is one of the best bikes I have ever owned…look forward to seeing your videos in the future. Name…Thor!

Hi Buddy glad to hear that you're learning to face your demons, its a scary place to be and you're right, even though we think we can deal with it on our own we so often can't and it is Ok to be just Ok. So looking forward to meeting you in July and getting to know you mate. loving the new bike too you look like you're getting on with each other just fine. Keep up the good work buddy and good luck in the new house, seems like things are going your way so use that as a step up to where you want to be and may you continue to grow stronger with every new day. Love Alby xx
I endoed a Super Tenere in the back of a car when I was around 18 or 19 😀 nice heavy bike to pick up on your own when you're a girl lol
