Spooned on a set of Anakee 3, Rear Battlewing 502 was squared off below wear markers at 13,500km
Bike was running a bit rough. Pulled out the Harmonizer to sync the throttle bodies, I last synced them at 9500km before I got it serviced for my 2600km ride. I lifted the tank, yep right screw still set at 3/4 out, left screw wtf! 4 threads were showing - sync was way off and needed 6 turns in to be zero'd... wow, did the screw vibrate out? or did the shop service do a sync and set it way off!
Found that the TAB under the front of the tank is turning a light rust colour, decided to break out the Kill-Rust Black Paint and just fix it. Spent then next 45 minutes going over a 1 year old 2015 bike painting rust spots - rhs rear brake tab, lhs subframe edge, windscreen adjustment frame welds for studs and the accessory pipe bleeding rust out of left side, rhs front mount of oem crashbar I scratched large amount of flakey paint off and fixed it!
Yamaha don't know how to paint!
