I think so, I'll need to go an several  long rides just to be sure though.

were your tb's off by much?

I checked mine at 2k and they were spot on from the factory.

One was a little lower than the “reference” TB,  and the other was  quite a bit higher. My bike has almost 15k miles, and that’s the first time it’s been done though...

Got my re-flashed ECU back a couple of days later, and am very happy with the results. Did the TB sync as planned too....the improvement is definitely noticeable. Smoother running, cooler running, and no more jerky throttle.  Ivan did a great job, and did it very quickly...thanks to him I love this bike even more.

My ECU is boxed up, and will be on its way to Ivan in the AM, I can’t wait to get it back and go for a ride. Will also be doing a TB sync when it’s returns since I’ve already got everything taken apart.

Got my Madstad 22" clear mounted yesterday, and the phone mount set up. Went on a 40 mile test ride and love it! I could see the 24" being a little better, but I am 5'10", and the 22" put the wind right at the top of my helmet....very smooth, quiet air now. I found the noise & turbulence of the stock shield to be rather annoying at times.

Madstad fits a quadlock and a X mount. Just incase anyone is wondering.

 

Very nice ... What size / thread RAM ball works best for mounting to the Madstad bracket?

Installed a pair of Baja designs Squadron Pro aux lights today - tested them tonight going to work- and holy moly!! - night and day does not do it justice.  These things are awesome!

I wired these with an on/off push button on the L/H handlebar - so I can run them independently of the low or high beam - or OFF - if I choose.  I was doubtful at first, especially with a price tag of $300, but well worth it.  I ride a lot of country backroads to and from work and these things are perfect.  I have each light pointed outward maybe 5-10 degrees from center - and it is perfect.  

Highly recommend!

Those are very nice looking. What did you use to mount them?

I heard about this on YouTube from (Brian Glynn/ (Two Wheeled Obssession). He mentioned it happening with FJR bags, and I checked mine as soon as I got my GT home from the dealer. Sure enough, some were already loose. I removed each one, applied a little blue loctite, and reinstalled. They have been fine ever since. Anyone with Yamaha hard side cases should check for this ASAP if you haven’t already.

My GT has done this since day one... has not gotten any worse or better in 5,000 miles

Its not really downloadable, but it is handy.

Has anybody un-gooed the decals on the top of the r/h tank panel? Do they come off as easily as the front mudguard/fender one ?

 

Cheers,

Kenny.

Mine all came off easily with  a little heat from a hairdryer...front fender, side panels, and the ones up near the gas tank

I removed it from mine, as well as the blue graphics in front of the gas tank. I think it looks much nicer now, and the only thing I used was a hair dryer to heat them up a little.

So it finally warmed up to +10C, sunny skies and in spite of snow along the roads, I couldn't  wait any longer. Did my first 160 kms on my brand new GT. Engine and handling great, no need to elaborate, everything works as it should - almost.

In 6th gear under throttle there is an audible whine, something like turbine,  coming from what I assume is transmission. It starts around 70 km/h and disappears just before 120 km/h. It disappears as well on deceleration at any speed. It is not there in any other gear under any conditions. Any comments on that?

Weird thing happened to my old faithful Garmin Oregon 300 GPS, I have been using it on different bikes for at least 10 years. Have it in RAM holder on handlebar, just left of the center, about half foot away from bike's display. Batteries charged, perfect signal. Start up the bike and ride away and signal disappears, says no sattelites. Reset the GPS, all fine,  start riding, satellites gone. So I take the GPS off the holder, engine running and at distance over foot from bikes display it stars working again. There is clearly some interference coming from somewhere (speedometer display?) that is imobilizing the GPS. Will try some different location/position,  but this is disappointing. Anyone experienced something like that?

No need to worry, the tranny whine in 6th  is normal. My GT does it, and I run my chain on the loose side of the range. I've heard it in many of the review videos on you tube as well.
