Axle nuts don't spin, unless you are taking them off our putting them on. If they do you screwed up! That nut is a eye candy though.

@wordsmith , glad to hear you are taking some time to think it over. Remember you don't need burn through half a tire in one ride with a stock seat! In the mean time, I hope no one down-under buys your well-farkled GT!!😉

@nhchris I Had the green light procedure Over ten years ago, just listen to the Doctor and you will be going like a race horse. Be happy you will have the winter to recover, not that you will need that long👍

Are you going to use a hydraulic pressure switch for the clutch safety switch?

@Kenny A., I don't think it would affect the seat height much. I ordered the basic seat that Chromeburners sells. I wasn't sure how to modify the seat through Cromeburners, but I'm real happy with the seat I received.

@donk Get your self a mechanics stethoscope and put it on the engine and move it around when you hear the noise It will let you pin point where the noise is coming from.

Welcome to the world of the 900GT @CaptainVallo. Every time I ride mine, I love her more. Enjoy!!

The GS is a great bike, but i'm sure that GS had the living snot beat out of it for 14,000 miles. You know the saying ride it like you stole or rented it.😈

I'm very sorry to hear this @wordsmith. I know this is not an easy choice.

Kudos to @wordsmith, I received my Bagster seat and within 24 hrs. I have put just under 250 mi on it. Started off this morning with winter riding paints with it being 34 F out. The paints are pretty slippery and I do slide into the tank with the stock seat, I'm happy to report no tank humping problems👍. The ride included stop and go traffic, highway (only choice) and twisty back country roads. With just under 6 hours saddle time and 20 minutes off the bike for gas and hot dogs, I'm very happy with the comfort of the seat. I probably only had to stand up on the pegs for numb butt half a dozen times, compared to the stock seat, I was playing trials rider after about 30 minutes. I'm sure the seat will get even better once it is broken in.

Glad to hear you like your new GT! ! Let the mods begin🦘👍

@coachluciano did you use all 4 of the stock feet from the Yamaha pax ( not the front seat) seat or a combination of them?

Let your bike sit out in the sun and let dry out and see what happens. It does not take a lot of moisture to mess up LED's.

I received the Bagster seat seat today from Chromerburners today, Very impressive 11 day from ordering. The seat look's great and fells good, just having the fitment issues with the rear seat. No big deal, I will work on it when I get around to it.😀

If I was doing hundreds of miles at a pop on the interstate every day I might consider the gear change or go back to a Gold wing. But the way I ride I would rather go the direction @betoney did. Nothing worse than having to down shift all the time to be in the power band.
