I have this hanging in my 'bike-room' It's an original t-shirt from the 1981 U.S.G.P at Unadilla, with original pit-passes! Bob Hannah killed it!

I'm an old dirt-biker. As you can sse, Yamaha is in my blood.

I will say the back roads of Vt. were awesome! There was very little traffic, even though it was a holiday weekend. You can cruise along at your own pace. This bike thrives on roads like this. I have the Moose Expedition luggage and my guess we were way overloaded. My theory of...

Right-on!

Mine stays in whatever mode I rode last as well.

I'm kinda spoiled working at a Yamaha dealership and can purchase OEM hardware at a substantial discount. I'm also not one to cut, or modify, anything. Those short dampers did the trick!!!! Seat nice-n-flat flat and carries me way better then before. I'm so glad I found this tread before my...

Got my brackets!!!!! They work awesome! We had the windshield screws , and well-nets, in stock! I had an inkling they would work. They did!! I installed the well nuts through the brackets and then into the winglet accessory holes. I'm not running the winglets. They hold the brackets good...

Right-on.

Guess what? We had 12 of the shorter seat dampers in stock, go figure.

Holy cow I'm so happy I found this! My only 2 complaints about my 2016 is the lack of self cancelling turn signals and the seat angle. Now I have a fix for at least one of the issues. I work at a Yamaha dealership and will search the joint for an XV seat, or just order the lower cushions...

I was actually working at a Honda dealer when the Africa Twin landed. The first words from my mouth, "It's more dirt bike." 1. No center stand 2. Tubed tires. 3. Chain drive. 3 strikes......I was out. I bought the Tenere' while working at the Honda dealer. I was asked by the owner to...

This upcoming holiday finds me with a rare 4 days off in a row. I'm going to load up the 'Queen Bee' and head to the Quechee Gorge area in Vt. My Fiance' is a Mass. girl and has never been to this part of Vt. I haven't been in over 20 years. I recall the 'back roads' being spectacular for...

Just ordered mine. The seller was very prompt answering questions. Problem is......looks like I'll have a tall OEM windscreen for sale. From what I've read this product works best with the standard screen. Oh well, I got the tall screen at cost, I'll recoup that by selling it on my ebay...

Right-on! Thanks!!!!!
