It’s going to be a lot more reliable and much easier to service than what you’re used to. I really enjoyed my 2014. 

I got caught in the rain on a run to the pharmacy (fancy place that sells whiskey). The previously problematic jet seal matte produced notable water repellance and beading, but the trial is contaminated by my employment of the meguiars greasiness in place of the chemical guys matte duster...

I want this. But not enough to spend $155.00 on it. I’ve already got $80 in the slipgrip and buzzkill combo. 

That is badass. 

After having used one for a while, I can say that  ram quick grip works great. 

This rider continues to find the matte to be more fragile than the gloss finish on his previous bike. Of course, it doesn’t help that scratches show white underneath. Not a dealbreaker, but not the same either. The matte blue looks really good, dirty or clean.  I’ll eventually try the Dr...

Mild contact I can dealt with. My bars are in the middle position. Yours? I need to find a strap version of this bag.    Considered the FJR1300 bag from Yamaha. But have no idea how clearance is. 

My fiamm failed. Started fading and sounding weird. Power was good. Concluded it couldn’t handle the wet riding i was doing.    Replaces with the PIAA sport pair. Mounted to both top corners of the radiator. I don’t think I had to add anything except for the bridge wire connectors. Had to...

Sold to SkooterG. Thanks for your interest. 

Tried pm’ing you, skooter. 

Newly opened, used one day, VStream dark tint gen 3/4 shield. 20307. Shortest VStream. Slightly larger than stock. Blocks wind better than stock. But with my height, heli’s, and custom seat, it is a little smaller pocket than I want for highway speeds. $105. (Will discount for local pickup.)

I stumbled across the old xgrip I tried in the garage yesterday. Tossed it. 

I badly want to go back to using a tank bag. For trips they’re the ****. But my Givi x-whatever interferes with the bars at lock, due to the helibridge. I have yet to find a bag that sits far enough back to clear. 

I like mine so well I keep putting off removing them for the summer. Now that I have mirror extenders, I find little reason to pull them off. 

You just need a decent mount. X-grip is the shittiest mount I’ve ever seen. It’s not if, it’s when, when you’re taking about an x-grip dumping a phone. Even with the rubber band thing that’s supposed to compensate for how bad the mount itself is.    I prefer the slipgrip. But ram has an...

The blue I had years ago would match the ‘18 perfectly. But black would too. A couple of the links above may not be legitimate sites. I am convinced I’ll find someone that has one in a box. They come up every son often. Otherwise, I’ll end up buying from one of the larger players  overseas. 

I bought a Nelson Rigg half cover. Used and loved it. But if I had to park in direct sunlight for days in end, it didn’t 100% cover the bags on both sides of I had the big case and big shield on. It almost did. Covered everything a sane person wanted, kept bike completely dry. I still have it...

Wanted- Bagster tank cover in deep blue or black.  For gen 3. I sold one when I had my 2014, and now it’s exactly what I need for my 2018. 

I use grip buddies. I am rough on grips and peg rubber. I usually have to replace my grip covers once or twice a year. Grips would never make it through my ownership of a bike, and I don’t want to pay for new Yamaha heated grips. I replace my peg rubber at around 50,000 miles. 

I didn’t fool with them for 80,000 plus miles on the ‘14. Haven’t messed with them in almost 40,000 miles on the ‘18.
