Almost 68. Had a Raider before this. Got tired of cleaning chrome.

Back in the spring when weather was better!

How much is shipping to 55944

Ok, 1st, I don't usually go to a dealer for service often. I do usually let them do my 1st service after purchase. I have never had a problem. This dealer has been good to me over the years and like I said, never had a problem, even though they haven't done alot to my bikes personally they do...

I did have oil changed by local yamaha shop. Checked level but not the cap. I'll do my own from now on and check the cap also.

Yes, I did just have my oil changed by a yamaha shop a few days ago. Che No but I think the smoke was blowing low and behind me. Didn't see it till I slowed in the subdivision.

Thanks. I still don't know how it came loose.

Long story short....oil cap came off while riding in very very windy conditions. On a highway at 65- 75 mph. Lost probably a quarter quart or less before I noticed smoke as I had slowed to turn in towards my house. Oil is everywhere on the lower half front to back. Question is what is the best...

Silver , parked on 1St.SW. about 4pm today.

It was a battle. I bought this in the crate last week in March. I tried the other end and can't move it either. Glad I don't need it off. It's done , I'm glad!

Thanks for everyone's help and suggestions. After completely removing the head, with the hole drilled completely through it, I used a bolt extractor in a drill to remove the scew. The threads were red from top to bottom. I don't know why! I now have my topcase mounted. Thanks again.

No, I have a new rack being sent to me. (Donated) In case I destroyed this one.

I do have another being sent. Just in case.

Haven't drilled the head off yet. Drank the beers instead. Had to work today. It has a hole completely thru it.

It sounds like they sell alot of these. How do others get the factory screw out that is in the hole by number 9 ??
