    Delivery Dates

    Just got the bad news from my dealer. Yamaha sent out an email this morning saying November with the option to opt out and get your $500 deposit back. At 55 with no bike to ride I will probably opt out. Bummer, I was really looking forward to this ride. Best of luck to everyone and I'm sure it...

    Howdy from Arkansas

    Welcome Rushes, where is Dean Springs located? I spend a lot of time in NW Arkansas, may even look at relocating there if and when I get to retire. Maybe we can get together at some point.

    Ignition Key and Imobilizer system

    BMW's problem was not with the key but the antenna ring in the switch. Lost mine on my 08 RT just as I had all my gear on and headed to Bentonville BMW to have it replaced and spend the weekend in NW Arkansas. I was slightly pissed.

    Delivery Dates

    I just came from my dealer to ask about delivery dates. I ordered mine mid Sept but cant recall what number I was. He had received an email from Yamaha about my bike saying it would be delivered in June. I can live with this but hope it's early June. I probably do less riding from the end of...

    Cruise Control Project

    When I bought the RT I got the option package with cruise. Didn't think I would use it very often, but as others have stated it is very nice in certain situations. I guess I've gotten spoiled but this is something I would like to have on the Tenere.

    Thanks AltRider. Maybe we could get Yamaha to get in on this and agree to bring the bikes in for Christmas.

    riding the twisties

    I'm hoping and betting that it will do just fine. I think hoebSTer nailed it. Most bikes now days are good enough that it's all about who's sitting on the seat.

    Yamaha letter

    Eat your hearts our, got a letter but even better got one of the big posters from my dealer and he said March 31st he'd give me the big banner. Banner is going up in the garage but I think I'll have the poster framed and put it in my office in the house. At my age time goes by WAY to fast but...

    ST article Cycle World

    Just got my Dec. issue and there's the ST on the cover with a very nice write up. Not a full blown test but they had very positive things to say. Sold the RT a couple of months ago so I'm bikeless and it sucks. I may have to find a cheap beater to ride until May.
