    2015 Super T ES - Mods for new guy

    It was EricV that was doing the importing. I just found a post indicating that they stopped. Too bad, really nice product.

    2015 Super T ES - Mods for new guy

    If you research, it is a common complaint that the stock foam seat does not have enough padding upfront. At first, on shorter rides of around an hour or so, I did not have much complaints but then noticed the tank loving problem on half day/full day rides. The Seat Concept foam has more material...

    2015 Super T ES - Mods for new guy

    I really like the Rumbux plate and bars. Nice install, easy oil change and frame attachment. Even on decent fire roads the rocks kick up all the time and clearance is kind of low. I went with the helibar and like the new reach but also helps with stand up riding for tall folk. The ECU reflash...

    Rumbux system experiences, pros & cons?

    I have been happy with my set. No problems on the install and works great taking hits on the trail. I am 240 lbs and ride in the soft setting with no scraping but I do keep the foot pegs off the ground. Panel removal is easy too. No regrets. Can take a little while for them to get made and...

    Madstad Windscreen System & High Temps

    I just got mine installed in the last two weeks, so not too much experience yet in really hot weather. I am 6'3" and went with the stock shape 22" screen. The additional protection is really nice. At first, with the face shield closed, I found it too hot. It was low humidity in the high 80s...

    Nelson Rigg (SE-3050)

    I recently picked up these bags and they seem really nice for the price point. I also installed the Motek quick lock racks. The idea was to strap the bags on to the rack and just remove or add the rack when the bags were needed. The only thing I do not like is the saddle straps have to go over...

    24 Hr Review by FortNine

    I found the reviews to be relatively accurate for an out of the crate ride. I am just at 600 miles on a 2017 ES. I like Yamaha, low maintenance and reliability. The reviews fail in telling the real story. You can get a new ES, out the door for mid $15k, maybe less. As a larger rider, I found...

    Soft Bag Side Quick Mounts - Affordable Options, with quality?

    OK, that might work. Instead of buying a rack system and then the quick release plates for some $600, this system essentially has both together. I assume you leave the bags attached and just disconnect the whole rack when not needed. Thank you.

    Soft Bag Side Quick Mounts - Affordable Options, with quality?

    I am putting together a soft bag system and was checking out these quick mount options. They look very convenient but $300 bones for two plates.... Does anyone make a nice one that is reasonable on the price side? The two that I have found so far-...
