    2013 brake light

    Am i the only one on here that has problems with their front brakes applying pressure before the light comes on. From 30 mph down to 0, I can apply enough brake pressure to stop without ever having the brake light activate. My dealer told me that Yamaha has some leeway in activation. While...

    Same wobble with a pilot on there, so changing back to q-2 for tomorrows trip. Then different tires. I forgot to mention I installed some genmar risers I had left over from my 2012. Would re torquing the top head bolt have any bearing on this issue. I have since re torqued the triple clamp...

    Routing power from the glove box?

    Correct, I am able to use a pigtail splitter and power all 3 with no problems, I hate routing all three grooves to allow the door to close but it works fine... Not sure how Yamaha thought you were going to use the power outlet without keeping the glove box open.

    So when do I run out of fuel on 2013?

    Fuel every 200-225 miles unless you are in an area where fuel is limited. I have my son on his R-6 always fuel up as we head out and never have a problem. I tend to run every new vehicle I own out of fuel or as low as possible so that I know their limits and ride/drive accordingly. I have...
