It’s class, really big and after being side by side with the lonerider it’s next to identical and at under 1/2 the price, I would say the lonerider has heavier material but then that’s more weight.

They are a wide bike alright. The wings on the low crash bars are to remove the need to upper bars, and a bonus as a better leg rest.

@Getting-On17 күн бұрын
@@trailrunnermike Thanks for your comment, all the straps are standard with the Enduristan Blizzard luggage, the big ones are for the throw over, and the small ones are for holding in place to the bike. It’s a bit of overkill and there is way too much length in all the straps, but they are universal and some bikes are bigger so more length is needed. The small straps have metal hooks on the end which i had to heat to bend out to fit my rear rack. It’s great luggage and im very happy with it. One downside is it’s a pain to remove quickly, a base system that stays on the bike with quick release would be better.

I also have the Extreme, but unfortunately there are some disadvantages that I don't like very much. The original Yamaha crash bar can break the engine in a crash. There is no steering damper for this model, neither from Yamaha nor from other manufacturers, that can be legally driven on the road in Europe. The high Rally seat cannot be exchanged for a low standard Yamaha seat because it doesn't fit. The aftermarket only offers very uncomfortable low seats, such as Seat Concepts. I don't like the T7WR because of the big tank, but it has a more comfortable wider seat and the seat height is lower, and an integrated crash bar. That's why I love and hate my motorcycle, because of all the design errors from Yamaha.
