  1. This is the belly pan professional painted..
  2. The fjr bags came in the phantom blue color. However I got a belly pan painted for the bike professional..
  3. I swapped them over for the fjr panniers..
  4. Anyone any positive remedy's for this, I have 1400 miles done, the first service plus recall and these vibrations/buzzing are still numbing my hands within 20 min rides. Have been riding bikes for 30 years and never had such complaint, so I don't think I am holding on to tightly. The clutch leaver has a vibration that can be definitely felt if I lightly put my fingers on it. Also have noticed now that when in 6'th gear and lightly press my foot up against the gear change a vibration/buzz can be felt.. I have booked in with dealer in a couple of weeks to see if they can feel same vibrations. I have also talked to a couple of people who test rode the demo tracer and where put of buying it by this problem.. Both dealt and Yamaha UK are denying having heard of such problems on tracer. Also have Yamaha heated grips installed by dealer, not sure if these would make a difference. I have a French alps tour starting in July and will probably revert back to my 1998 TDM 850 if I cant get this sorted..
  5. Would be interested in a solution to this as at certain rpm, really noticeable in the run in period while trying to keep rpm below 5000, I get bad buzz in bars which gives me pins and needles in hands, I don't get this on the TDM.. i think on another thread it was mentioned to fill the bars with silicone or similar any body any experience with this?
  6. Just received my French Lower mounting brackets, from purchase to delivery 4 days... Cancelled and got refund from yocracing.com for the Yamaha lower mountings, these were on back order to May 21st.... Put the French ones on the bike in 5 mins.. http://i.imgur.com/Ydqtps6.jpg http://i.imgur.com/120U33P.jpg http://i.imgur.com/f1FZ42l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/iRD5uNe.jpg http://i.imgur.com/9iqiIJ2.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ar9XFUP.jpg
  7. Just order this I might cancel the other... In stock and dispatched already... http://www.accessdesign.fr/epages/box2212.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/box2212/Products/FVY022
  8. Anyone able to post any dimensions of the lower mount brackets for the panniers thinking about getting a pair fabricated.. On back order and worried they will slip past quoted date again...
  9. Same for me I got mail saying 21 May.. Been trying other sources including Yamaha UK but no joy, the part number doesn't show up on European system... Checking to see about getting a couple made..
  10. When did the parking lights disappear from the bike when ignition switched to Park... What other norms have changed in bikes since I last bought a bike in 1998?
