  1. By rotating the lower handlebar holders 180 degrees you can move the bars forward assuming the bikes are shipped in the rear position. The Yamaha shop manual has the torque as follows. Upper handlebar holder bolts at 16ft-lb Lowe handlebar holder bolts at 30ft-lb Hope this works out for you.
  2. I installed the MRA touring windscreen in light smoke last night. I took the Tracer out for a 100mi ride today, mostly back roads 70mph or below. I must admit I'm very pleased with the reduction in wind noise and helmet buffeting. Time will tell if this is the final answer for me. At 6'3" nothing is going to block all the wind and I don't want the glass shower door look.
  3. You hit the nail on the head, David. You would be amazed at how many riders don't even check the air in the tires nowadays. I see this a lot at the bike shop my friend owns. Bikes coming in for state inspections with 10psi in the tires, He asks them when the last time they checked the tire pressure. Replay last time you inspected it!
  4. Twisted Throttle Has pre-order double points special on the MRA touring windscreen for $144.95. I ordered one in smoke, I hope this does the job for my 6'3" height. If not they have a great return policy.
  5. Gerdawg I would be very interested in seeing the screen if that is ok. I am located in North Wales PA. Thanks, Rick
  6. Harraseeket, Do you have any pictures of the Yamaha touring screen on the bike. I'm 6'3' and really looking for a solution! Thanks
  7. I'm learning to live with it as am also trying to find the side stand without looking at it. Life ain't easy for people with size 13 feet.
