XTZ750 usuall problems

[teedee]

Hi,
I've just purchased a XTZ750 Super Tenere and i'm aware of three regular problems with this model

1 gearbox oil seal leaks

2 regulator packs in

3 needles and emulsion tubes wear out

My bike had its oil seal done last year by the previous owner so i'm ok with that, should i change the reg now before it packs in, as it has a reg with made in japan on it so i presume its the original and if i do need to change it what should i use. The bike runs fine at the moment so when the needles and emulsion tubes need changing should i use genuine Yam parts or some other make.

Congrats for S10
The reg must have real heatsink.Look for:
ducati energia 12v 35A
majestic 250-400
GSXR
TDM 850
R1,R6
piagio X9 500.......
beside running fine what is your consumption?Below 7L/100km is OK.
In other case look for :needles from KEDO ("swiss kit").Original emulsion tubes or better from "factory pro"

Teedee,
I changed my regulator with one from a UK company called Electrex, they do two models RR98 / RR54. Just identify which one fits your model.

Electrical parts > Yamaha Motorcycles - stator generator regulator rectifier

Regarding the emulsion tubes i got mine from the US from a company called Factory Pro, I believe they have a UK distributor called Straightline Racing.
Part Number CRZ-EMU-100120k
Factory Pro: Producers of the EC997 Low Inertia Eddy Current Dynamometer Series and Quality MC performance products

Theres a good website that covers all things related to the Super Tenere including a step by step guide of how to replace the emulsion tubes,
www.super-tenere.net

I hope this helps.
