Received a Priority Mail envelope yesterday from D & H Cycle, Inc. of Cullman, Alabama, with my Seller/Buyer signed Invoice attached: Now all I have to do is patiently wait until my Super Tenere shows up. PATIENCE, HELL: I want to ride to Guatemala, ese!

I got that letter too from Jerold. My bill of sale # is 156895 (raven) but have no idea which boat that would mean it would arrive on. I sure hope it is in May and not 2 mo. later. Congrats. Jerold told me a few days ago when I called before getting the letter (was #2 on their list BTW) that they had only 4 orders at the time. He was thinking with their lowest price there would be more. I guess many were getting pretty good deals near home and didn't want to tank an adventure to Alabama. It will be a 700 mile return ride for me to coastal NC but will give a good shakedown ride.

@ 156895 your on the third boat..... :blink: :dribble:

Oh No, all those lower numbers will be loaded first and in the bottom of the boat. Mine will be loaded on top and unloaded on the dock first. It is a perfect plan, hehe. Actually no one really knows what those numbers mean. It could be all orders or sumpin. We'll all find out one of these days.

yours is at the top ! :dribble: :p

 
I've watched this Yamaha Super Tenere 1200Zed video a dozen times. I can't wait until "La Poderosa Diabla Negra" arrives and I can start outfitting her for my Ride to Guatemala!
 
Man o man, that video sure makes me want to take me black beauty out and commune with nature all over the USA and Canada too. I think we should now officially petition Mama Yama to equip our rides as a first edition with the same goodies they did in other countries, yeah baby :clapping: . But that would mean I have to cut down on my farkle list :eek: .

doctorj

 
All I know is I want you guys to roll video the first time one of you members of the Metamucil Mulisha take it off road. :D

Rock on!

I think some of the Yamaha parts are good... some are definitely not... IMOP, the bags, skid plate, Etc are not that great.. And for the same money (little more or less) you can get way better gear !! Tons of new stuff coming out every day !!! Has everyone seen the new Akrapovic exhaust? Link here: COOL PARTS :assassin: Supposedly these after market cans are yielding 7.5Bhp on the Dyno.....

Hmmm, not too many of those things interest me, but that fuel cell might be a good one. Not too much of this looks as functional as the stuff I want. SW-motech stuff interests me more.

Well, Hmmm, the skid plate has the most protection I've seen yet,the skid plate under the rear drive gear / swing arm is pretty cool, and Ohlins shocks too ? The Akro gives a few more horses, but I guess you like the gold spoke wheels ? :lol:
