  1. Needles to say that this is an already incredible machine. Very reputable model from Yamaha that is becoming very popular. I bought it from the first owner with only 2400 KM on it ! I am taking very good care of the bike and I had no intention to sell it until I found a good GS that I couldn’t resist Here is a list of Add ons that I have on the bike: Sargent Seat ROAD 5 MICHLIEN Tires with less than 1000 KM !! Puig Windscreen Handguards lights ( with Turn Signals) Additional AUX lights that are connected on a relay and additional switch Front beak ( Cosmetic Only ) Painted in RED color to match the bike Kickstand support SW MOTECH Skid Plate ENGINE BARS with 2 Additional sliders GIVI 37 L Top Box with AUX lights ( connected to running lights, brakes and Turn Signals). OEM Hard Cases with black reflective Decals with Yamaha Logo ( Rear and Sides ) Battery Tender connection Heater gear connector R&G Radiator grill protection. R&G handlebar support /ENDs OXFORD heated grips Windscreen RAM mount + GPS mount + GPS NUVI 265 connected directly w relay. Additional USB installed on the right side of the screen connected directly w relay.. $7000 with no accessories or $8000 with everything. I already paid way more than this to get the bike to the current shape and mods. Sargent seat, Hard cases and tires alone are well over $3K of investment. This is a very good bike that I enjoyed and I am not in rush to sell. I will wait for the right buyer. Call or text , Bike is in my garage, come check it out anytime. Thank you
  2. I have the R&G holder. I removed it recently as I fitted other accessories so no pics for now. It's adjustable and solid. It will fit at the narrow areas of the bar only though. R&G Fully Adjustable Bottle Cage for Motorcycles - BLACK ...
  3. its good investment, I drilled a hole in it to easily access the oil drain instead of removing it every time I need to change the oil.
  4. $30 for the beak and $100 for the paint 😉 Holding absolutely great. It had been on for a year and I am doing highways frequently. I can't tell if it's there.
  5. I took it to a regular Auto body shop. They ordered the color. It's sanded and painted not vinyl. It looks like it was originally there not an after market.
  6. Applied ACF50 and got it ready for the winter riding ❄❄❄
  7. @BBB, thank you for the website. expensive but looking good. I know I will end up buying something @Wintersdark, I am using GEARS controller, GEARS heated seat layer & GERBING Gloves liner. they all work together with no problem.
  8. I can confirm that the heated seat is unnecessary, but I wanted to let you know that it makes a difference. I have heated grips, and they are still not enough. My thumb gets too cold. Heated gloves are really awesome. I am using the new Alpinestars Andes 2 as my winter riding jacket and I didn't need to add a heated vest........yet I am looking for a heated socks though. I feel the air flow is making my feet cold. I totally agree that when you use the heated gear, you are warm enough & you feel better than even in your car. It makes the difference in your reaction time and your riding in general.
  9. Got ready for the cold weather. Installed the gears heated seat liner on top of my sargent seat and dual controler to control the seat and my gloves separately. Had the perfect ride through the cold today. I know the seat looks ugly with this on top of it but I am planning to use it with my new custom seat and I didn't want to mess up the sargent seat. Anyways, I don't see it while riding , lol. 😜
  10. Yes, I have it and I like it much. Mine looks pretty much the same.......not anymore its still very close. @gerryc91, great buy , you will love it.
  11. I took the first picture while changing oil last time so the skid plate is not on the bike but the bike was clean-ER. The second one has both. Enjoy 🙂
  12. My bike looks very close to yours. A tip, I drilled a hole in the skid plate to allow me change oil without removing the plate next time. I think they should have done it by design. I am not sure if you will like that but I painted the beak red to match the rest of the bike.
  13. yes , I used it like a month ago and I like the difference; you can see my pics and other members' pics too here. you will also find some other ways in this thread to clean the tubes but I used AUTOSOL too.
  14. Guys, I like the effort you did to make this work. Do you think this idea can work to control Gerbing heated gloves and jacket? I want to buy them but I am trying to find a better way for the controller.
  15. Changed oil Installed the new red beak 😃 Drilled a hole in the skid plate to access oil drain for future oil changes Brake fluid flush
  16. I was, but I liked the red one and it changed my mind ! 😀
  17. Make sure to get the original one though if you don't want to end up with flimsy ones.
  18. RAM is the answer. it holds pretty well given all the speeds and the highways and I don't want to change the holder every time I upgrade my phone!
  19. I was gonna recommend the Terry's Custom seat until I read this one. what about Corbin? I have the Sargent too but I am getting Terry's custom seat for replacement.
  20. Thank you guys for the advises. I finally got my AUTOSOL and the TIME see results here And this is how it looked like before I cleaned it:
