Premium Member V8titanpwr Posted September 6, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted September 6, 2014 Yeah its basically just tubing sitting on wood, no need for joiners as we only have two throttle bodies. I did notice that the screws turn quite easily though, just messed with them a little to see if I would be fighting with them. Here's a good video that shows a homemade sync tool. Keep the rubber side down and the shiny side up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do tell, please! - Paulie Bought them off of the fleabay....errrr ebay. Shipped from the U.K. Pricey if you ask me at $240 shipped, but they are well worth it. I've had ASV adjustable levers on every bike I've owned and they can't be beat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member pgeldz Posted September 7, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted September 7, 2014 Can you PM me a link? I've been looking forever. Are these the Yamaha Accessory ones? I believe the ones sold through Yamaha are Black with Silver adjusters, and the normal ASV's are Black with Red adjusters, but you can get Silver adjusters as an option, as well as a few different colors also.

Guest montana07 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Well no mod, but yesterday i put in a couple hundred miles, and on one particularly long straight section of highway I just couldn't resist opening her up. Maxxed out at 117mph. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member V8titanpwr Posted September 8, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted September 8, 2014 Throttle body sync, oil change, tightened and lubed the chain and took the slack out of the throttle. I swear the dealer didn't fill the oil up right. Keep the rubber side down and the shiny side up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YZEtc Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Actually, Yammies come with oil in the engine straight from the shipping crate. Doesn't mean somebody didn't add some when they didn't have to, though. Seen that more than once. Today, I rode it, rode it, rode it, and changed the earl and filter at dusk.

Hmm I may have to take a trip up there, that's only 90 mins out from Queens. There is a lot of nice territory up that way. Head over to the 7 lakes and Bear mountain .. quite impressive. Nice roads, some twisties and so far have not run into anything that looks like traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member hobbs Posted September 8, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted September 8, 2014 Changed the oil @ 640 miles, checked the chain (was good, no adjustment), gave the bike a good wash with S100 cleaner and installed a set of Yamaha saddlebags. They were really a pain, and the instructions were not great. Black painted bits on the bike are suuuuper easy to scratch. Be forewarned. Bags are good quality though with a good bit of storage. Look sharp too but wish the strap across the pillon sat further up. Pics when it's not dark. Everything went braap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qjohnson Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I gave my 07 a bath today and cleaned the insect graveyard lol. Then I waxed it. The wheels are a pain to wipe clean!! I kept hitting my hands on the brake discs and got all greasy from the chain. I need a stand ASAP. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice and shiny, but give me mag wheels anytime. I agree, I need a paddock stand too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I turned over 1K today on a ride to the Pacific Ocean and back. Yes, she's my 10 year old beagle. They are the sweetest dogs, very tenacious and stubborn if food is involved. I built a locked trash bin as she's gotten herself into trouble quite a few times. She has had a hard life I attribute to bad genetics (puppy mills). Treated her for cancer when she was 2 and 1/2, radiation therapy and surgery; she's also blown both ACL's, fortunately not at the same time. I'm really glad we did not opt for surgery for those, but I can say she's had a very happy life. We take good care of her and she's actually getting gray now, but so am I. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tip for the wheels, use Goo Gone, takes all the crap off and shines them up. 1 Keep the rubber side down and the shiny side up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
