Nothing wrong with dimples in smiles or on exhaust pipes; they're totally complimentary in both cases!

Very shameful that your local dealer doesn't represent Yamaha in a more positive light. Glad to hear your bike's back in service, though...there's lots to enjoy about it!

Yep, it's the stock GT screen.

Yup, you got the fever, Larz! Welcome to the family!

Very interesting, indeed...

Hopefully Sargent will have the 900/900 GT seats in production before too much longer; they're still in development at the moment.

'Fraid I've heard the very same thing from some of my local riding buddies, Rich. Terrible after-sale service, borderline incompetence, etc. Sad, indeed. Hope your wobble gets sorted out in good time.

Best of everything to you and your family, Gerdawg!!

LOL! Things happen FAST, don't they, Coop? 😁

I gotta hit the Blue Ridge Parkway and the West VA mountains more often. My 52 mpg is way too high during my long-ass commuting...

Yep, sounds all too familiar. Happens quite a bit here in the metro DC area. Glad it didn't get worse for you.

Yup, that's the cat's meow...👍

Now THAT is one happy dude!! Congrats, Larz! 😎

Great info, Gregorius. Thanks!

Haha!! Get some, Coop!! 😂 Larz, it sounds like you have the riding experience. Only my opinion, but if you're physically able to reach it and comfortable enough in the GT's saddle, everything else is CAKE. Send us a pic once you pull the trigger on a new one, eh?

Same here; Indicated is 2 mph faster than Actual across all speeds, per my Zumo 550. Never had a bike that was spot on from the factory. This one has the least amount of differentiation among bikes I've owned...so far.

Definitely a notable quotable, Tex! Carl the Greenskeeper was The Man!

Now paint'em in the Molson Canadian colors and you'll be the talk of the town...

Welcome, Jim! Check out the Member Map at the top to see if there's more Jersey folks in the fold.

Pretty quiet ride in this morning. Not much traffic and made good time. The best part was this morning's sky was crystal clear at 4:30 a.m. . . . looked up from my deck and saw nothing but stars everywhere. It was most impressive. Lately I've learned to really appreciate this kind of view. It was an awesome start to my day.

Those look very handy indeed! Lots of utility in that design. 👍

Had to avoid the quintessential SUV-driven-driver-eating-a-sandwich-and-listening-to-a-favorite-tune-and-not-seeing-me-NEXT-to-her on the way home yesterday. Decides she wants to share my lane while bopping behind the wheel and lost in her own little world. The level of rampant dumbassery out here is ASTOUNDING... Beautiful afternoon otherwise. 😁

Keep up the PT, Young Man. Every little bit helps.

I used my bench grinder to lightly grind down a 1/4" drive 10mm socket a little at a time until it fit inside the mirror arm's recessed pocket, then snugged up that recessed nut. Worked like a charm and ended the mirror arm drifting when I roll over the occasional washboard moguls on my daily commute.

Yup, what he said...
