Damn are we all getting Yamaha bolts? I guess I should start looking. Although my wife told me “NO MORE MOTORCYCLES “ I said does a quad count? The look I got was not good. Lol

 

I've seen them before but have never been interested until recently lol. I ask find it odd when I was dead set on a sportbikes my trailer never sold lol once I was looking at these it got sold within a week or two

 

Fate

 

Just have @fatfurious2 send them a message on your behalf. That’s what I do the guy he messaged today about a KLX140 never called me

 

Meant to be.

 

Seems like it don't it haha

 

Lol just bribe @fatfurious2 with green tea Arizona and he will do it for ya

 

It do seem that way don't it


The new bike is finally home. I was told it's name was the general? Idk prob won't keep that name haha

 

Is that Ohlins susp?

 

Ya I think so. The r spec and c spec had nicer rear shocks and I think forks? But can't remember tbh

 

Noice

 

I've had 2 Kendon trailers, one single and one double. They're pretty convenient, but I did not tlike towing one bike only on the double. It felt super sketchy

 

Nice dude the bike looks great hope you have fun with it!

 

Not Ohlins just a piggy back style shock but better than the one on the base model. I had the Yamaha/Progressive rear shocks on mine they added an inch of ride height and were adjustable.

 

thanks! forgot to send you a pic in the dms haha. i will say that air intake thou sticks out pretty far! that for sure is gonna have to get changed! plus pipes gotta be loud like all the other broooothers lol

ahh i could have sworn someone on the yamaha forum said they were but wouldnt be shocked if they were wrong lol

 

When you say it felt sketchy, do you mean it didn't tow well? Or do you mean you just felt off/didn't trust it in that configuration?

 

Yup the airbox is right where your knee wants to be... I had the Cobra PowrFlo intake and it was slightly lower profile but still a bit in the way. I didn't want to run a full open filter but people do that without issue it seems

 

ya thats what ive been reading on. a lot ran the open filter with no issues and if it rains they say just put the sock thingy over it and its no problem so ill prob go that route for low profile and old school look. then to find some cool sounding exhaust... i kinda want dual pipes i feel it would fit the look lol.

 

I've had facebook since I was 14, and all i use it for these days is birthdays and marketplace. I find Facebook Marketplace to be one of the better methods of finding decent used deals...just have to sift through some garbage. Wish their filters were a little better too.

nowadays I mostly just google "facebook marketplace" and then go from there haha. cut out the middleman

 

AHHH SNAP thats a good lookin bike at a great price, will be a good cruiser and 2 up machine for sure.
