I'm also curious about the seat. Thanks for the video. Also, where did you purchase your accessories from? Yamaha doesn't show me wind guards and stuff like you mentioned.

[@m0t0rnews26]

Everything I get for the bike comes from Yamaha EU, or other parts of the world. Here is a good place to start: www.yamaha-motor.eu/gb/en/accessories/motorcycles/?product=238697&vpid=931f3f28-1db9-4f24-b66c-410bdd283500&lio=0

[@m0t0rnews26]

Here is another good site: RWN-Moto.com

@@m0t0rnews26 Thanks. I'll have to check out RWN as they seem to ship to the states. Yamaha EU doesn't ship to the US. 🫤

[@m0t0rnews26]

@@Izmolio1 Yeah, I have been getting the part numbers from yamaha EU and then buying them from RWN.

I think this bike is/will sell like hot cakes. Yamaha did very well

Nice ride! A quick Q.... does the bump on the right side of the motor ever bump your leg or bother you??

[@m0t0rnews26]

Thanks! No, not so far.

Did you notice a big difference in seat height, when comparing the comfort seat with the OEM seat?

[@m0t0rnews26]

Yes, but not much.

[@otlndsh]

by the way I'm waiting on mine and I'm thinking of getting the comfort seat. do you recommend it? how is the difference between the two?

[@m0t0rnews26]

The comfort seats are not as comfortable as I thought they would be. They are better than the stock seats, but not by much. They do look better, though.

[@otlndsh]

@@m0t0rnews26 Interesting but not unexpected. Thank you! Maybe also it needs to be broken in lol. It does look awesome though

[@m0t0rnews26]

@@otlndsh Yeah, maybe. It is much nicer than the stock seat, though. I really like them.

[@KjKase]

@@m0t0rnews26 I love the look of the comfort seat. My first few days on the stock seat were pretty rough, but it seems to have gotten better. Once I finish other mods like tail tidy, blinkers, and new levers/mirrors I may pick up the comfort seat just for looks. It looks real nice, a little extra comfort is just a bonus.

[@m0t0rnews26]

@@KjKase Very cool. If you do levers, please share the video. I am thinking about getting some.

Hey, how tall are you? I'm about 5"5 (164cm) and I am thinking about getting lowering kit for it if I ever get one

[@m0t0rnews26]

5 foot 8.

How many miles do you average on a full tank?

[@m0t0rnews26]

When I fill up, the fuel gauge always reads "More than 120 miles". I average between 46 and 48 miles per gallon, so the actual range is probably 140-150 before the light comes on.
