  1. I don't have an exact answer referencing the V-Stream, I thought I would share this. Motorcycle Adjustable Clip On Windscreen Windshield Extension Spoiler Wind Deflector Adjustable Lockable Plus and Mini Size Description:The Screen is supplied with extension arms and Double Hinges... At $50 it is $120 cheaper than the MRA "Touring" version. I have the smaller MRA "Sport" version and use it on occasion, the effects are noticeable but not dramatic. I might try this brand as the mini version is 1" taller and 1" wider than my current MRA Sport. The important thing to consider with these spoilers is the width of your screen to make sure the mount posts fit.
  2. @Kenny A. - Glad you got the issue resolved and are back on the road. Like @BBB mentioned, behind the screen are several available 12v switched auxiliary power plugs, I hardwired my GPS and Denali DRL's into those plugs.
  3. Yes - they are dual intensity, running light and turn signal.
  4. I have ordered these for different bikes and they are definitely sold as a pair. Beside being very bright, they are also very durable. You would have to try deliberately to break these.
  5. I have tried many aftermarket LED signals over the years and NONE of them were as bright as these. I have had numerous comments as to their brightness from other riders riding behind me in group rides.
  6. Let us know how you like the Black Widow unit, at one point I had considered their tri-oval exhaust but decided on the Scorpion instead.
  7. Yes, they are sold as a pair and require an adapter plate to fit. Yamaha Turn Signal Adapter Spacers for Aftermarket In Hole Stalk Type Indicators | eBay Find great deals for Yamaha Turn Signal Adapter Spacers for Aftermarket...
  8. Just curious, why would you have to buy a blank key from China? Can you not get spare keys made from your local locksmith/key shop?
  9. I use these front and rear. Billet aluminum, small and bright as $H!t X-Arc Lights - the brightest LED Brake lights, turn signals, tail lights
  10. I have only used the app a handful of times, its kind of fun with a lot of ride data.
  11. Not one part of your Summer sounds like its going to suck. 👍 Epic riding! - Enjoy.
  12. And that is worth its weight in gold. I look at it like "I'm not getting any younger and there is way too much out there that I haven't seen". Last year alone, I rode Sonora Pass, had breakfast at historic "Alice's Restaurant", rode the Golden Gate Bridge, Napa, Mount Shasta, the Oregon Coast, Escalante and Moab, Utah and the Million Dollar Highway in Colorado - All that I had never done before on a bike.
  13. A complete suspension upgrade and buttery smooth fueling will enhance an already amazing bike, and an exhaust makes it sound absolutely EVIL! 😎
  14. Is the "Extra Gear" the mosquito net helmets or the alcohol? 😎👍
  15. @keithu - Thanks for taking the time to provide that explanation. Aside from riding consecutive 1,000 mile days, a multi-day, multi-state scavenger hunt-type ride sounds like a lot of fun, especially the random "bonuses" and having part of it a mystery until you start. It sounds like a very unique adventure. 👍
  16. Yes, I installed them on a 2015 model.
  17. Is there a website that describes what exactly this rally is? I have been to the official website and it lists the rules but nothing about what exactly it is. For example, there is a lot of talk about "bonuses" or obtaining specific photos, and there is a starting point but do you go back there each day or only at the end of the rally? Do all of the riders follow a set route like a large group ride or is it a free-for-all? 4,000-6,000 miles in 6 days could cover a large part of the US and into Canada if it was a large loop route.
  18. I have had the adventure pegs pictured above for almost 3 years. While I don't remember if I used the original pins and springs or it came with new parts, I do know for a fact that I didn't have to buy anything extra to make them work. It was a 5-10 minute swap.
  19. Please keep us posted on the outcome to this issue.
  20. Very nice!, sounds like a great outing. I love getting out and discovering places that I have never been to before and might never get back to.
  21. Google sez - Yausa YTZ10S
  22. @mellow - The stiffer sidewall shouldn't increase tread wear mileage at all.
  23. The only mention of the switch I could find is this, nothing mentioned on preference for shutting the bike off.
  24. I haven't ridden in So.Cal yet but ridden No.Cal many times, and all over Oregon dozens and dozens of times. I would suggest avoiding Seattle unless you feel the "need" to experience horrific traffic.
  25. I always just use the key, Ive never used the switch on any bike.
