Some of the amounts listed are in US Currency, but I don’t have actual printed receipts as many items were purchased online.
Total accessories and upgrades @ $8,194.00
Wired for a battery tender. Connector located near right horn near the fairing
Wired for heated vest. Connector at frame hand grip used when placing bike on center stand
One short riding season on the rubber. Good tread for at least one more. Front tire wears faster on these bikes, so tire pressure is critical. Yamaha spec recommends 39psi front and 42psi rear.
Synthetic oil used exclusively after engine break in
Recommend fresh oil and rear differential oil. I install a new filter at each oil change, and replace rear differential oil evey second oil change
Valve clearance checked at 40K- all within spec. Also replaced the plugs at that time since they were easy to get at. The plugs still appeared good, but I replaced them anyway, just because. They’ll be good for at least another 50,000
Not ridden since 2016, stored indoors with fuel stabilizer and automatic battery tender since.
Serviced the forks in 2016. They’ll be good for at least another two
All hydraulics replaced 2016
Swing arm lubed 2016
Throttle cables lubed 2016
I fabricated a special tool for use when servicing the front forks, which ought to be done every two seasons in normal riding conditions. I’ll include that tool and instructions for servicing the forks. If you take the bike in to a dealership for that service, make sure they understand the forks now have AK-20 performance cartridges, and therefore require a different fluid level, and use of premium fork fluid.
The Penske rear shock is set for a single rider, of 170lbs or so, moderate riding style. Packing a heavier rider and/or passenger and/or full luggage will require setting the shock accordingly. Contact Traxxion Dynamics for advice and instructions - they are very friendly and helpful folks
The front forks are also set accordingly, and may require some adjustment. Make adjustments in small increments, and note how many ‘clicks’ and in what direction they are made, to the various available settings. Consult the documentation or ask for advice from Traxxion.
Minor scuffs on left pannier and engine side case from a parking lot tip over. Custom rock shields installed on both mufflers after a passing truck launched a chunk of gravel and caused a small ding in the left muffler.
Normal tiny scuffs and scratches on other parts of the fairing, and slight scuff on the side fairing panels where rider’s leg contacted.
Never raced; never wrecked!
