  1. I just put mine on a couple weeks back. It wasn't the easiest full exhaust I've ever done, but it wasn't too bad. I'm trying to find my paperwork to see if the tab on the inside edge of the canister is for a removable db killer. My 14 year old is driving me crazy asking me if it is.
  2. I like the looks of the Tidy, but I’ve always kept the OEM rear alone due to rain spray off of the tire. I am tempted to get that radiator guard, though.
  3. I have the Yamaha topcase too. Mine has its own key and doesn’t use the ignition key. I wish it did, though! i do like the case as well. My 14 year old says he doesn’t need the backrest pad, luckily.
  4. @texscottyd any pictures of those Giles Tooling chain adjusters?
  5. I already have started saving old tires to make a cool garage hi-top table. Maybe I’ll save a couple new ones too. 😂
  6. I’ve been a little busy the last week or so throwing money at mine. I’ve added the Soundbomb Mini, OEM rack and topcase, bought an exhaust (which is on its way back-long story), ordered the Yosh made for the GT, added a few Ram Mounts, put Hyperlites on yesterday, and have a set of Bridgestone Hypersport tires to mount up. Anyone want a set of (verifiably) less than 300 miles set of the OEM Dunlops for a deal once I swap them out? Lol
  7. @Cruizin I just did the donation but did not see the text field to enter my username here.......
  8. Same here. I don't do it if traffic is above 30 or so, but anything less than that and I'm filtering through anytime I'm on the interstate. I used to not do it and would seethe sitting in traffic knowing the lucky ones in CA could. Then I took a week long ride in CA with a few buddies (one lives in SJ and met us for the ride - he's actually in my profile pic here) and did it all week long there following his lead the first couple of days. I became very comfortable with it then and I brought it home like a new religion. I live in a very congested area of I-75 south of Atlanta so I get semi-regular practice anytime I'm headed north towards Atlanta.
  9. I can’t give any real world experience yet since I just got mine Thursday, but I’ve got a few pictures of the 50L mounted up. Well, I tried but yet again, the pictures I take from my phone are too large of an attachment to send in here.
  10. I received an email back from him this morning. He said he was going to pass the message along to management and R&D. He also said that hopefully they will get the mods done soon and any updates he gets he will pass along to me.
  11. I have the Yamaha accessory rear rack and the Givi universal mount with a Givi 30L aluminum top case on my GT. No problem with the mount or height on my bike with this configuration if that helps. Rash, any way you could provide some pictures of your setup? I want to go with the Yamaha rack and a Givi topcase but would like to see a picture or two before dropping the money on it.
  12. I will call him tomorrow and mention it to him!
  13. He did tell me specifically that the FJ seat would not fit the 2019 Tracer.
  14. I’ll definitely be keeping my mind on it. I’ll reach back out to him in a month and see what progress has been made.
  15. I ordered the Yamaha touring shield for my GT today and I’m currently talking to the owner of Lextek Exhausts in the UK about getting one shipped over here. Slowly but surely I’m going to get it suited to me.
  16. Just finished emailing back and forth with a contact at Sargent about seats for the Tracer. He confirmed that their FJ seat will not fit on the Tracer but are working on it. He said that they plan on getting a Tracer in there and hopefully in a couple months they’ll have one ready. I’ve even offered to loan them mine if it helps since I live semi-close to them (approximately 6 hours away).
  17. Just got back from a quick 50 miles, I now have a whopping 78 total since bringing it home yesterday. Tied to upload the photo from my phone but said it’s too big. Trust me, it’s a cool distillery!
