    Shad seats, who's got them?

    I have the Shad seats. Very comfortable and they do have more of a texture than the stock units. I've done a few 200 mile rides without any issues. I think they look great also.

    frame plugs

    I ordered the same rubber plugs from Banggood that "Thach" spoke of for $4. They worked fine. The package was actually shipped from Europe and not China which was odd. I only used two because of my Sato frame sliders so it explains why I didn't have to trim anything.

    Danmoto Carbon GP slip-on!

    I believe it's the only way I can mount it. I have the Givi quick release rack (hard bags) mounted in that area and can't do away with it. It also needs a little room between the Givi mount/rack and the pipe.

    Fast Bike Industries (David Behrend)

    I sent David the link. I'm sure with all the suspension issues discussed here that he'll get a few calls. It certainly made a huge difference in the performance of the bike. Probably shouldn't have taken Yamaha three years to address. That being said even with the cost of the bike and the...

    Fast Bike Industries (David Behrend)

    My wife said I shouldn't divulge the amount so it wouldn't put FastBike into a corner on pricing.....but as long as we keep it between us and the other thousands of people on the forum...it was just over $1200 plus shipping. That includes the Ohlins shock, Andreani front cartridge kit (with oil...
