BigLenny Posted May 25, 2017 #177 Posted May 25, 2017 Latest Picture..... See new bike on left. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=109215 VAZ, Where are you getting all of these mosaics? I go on the Yamaha site, and all I'm seeing is the mosaic with the 4 headlights? Where is the one with the trunk, and the one with the half front with the mirror coming from? Just wondering. Big Lenny
djh3 Posted May 25, 2017 #178 Posted May 25, 2017 Looks like a bigger pic of the front end. From that pic it looks like it really will have a 4 headlight system. I wonder if that will be 4 headlights or 2 headlights and 2 driving lights? Hopefully LED or HID. You all need to share your drugs. I sure as heck cant see nuttin in those psyco pics. You can "think" your seeing something, but the pink rabbit aint there. I have a friend on the "other" Yamaha site that got tired of all the years and years of drama. He just bought the GW. Pretty cuss, its black and silver. I have not seen any like his.
BlueSky Posted May 25, 2017 #179 Posted May 25, 2017 We should do a poll and see how many members are realists and think it will be a V-twin and how many are dreamers and think it will be a V4:stickpoke:

cowpuc Posted May 25, 2017 #182 Posted May 25, 2017 When I look at that Journey Further saying with the funny looking "V" shape below the "O" as mentioned by someone earlier in this saga I see = "V"-"FUR"!! Cant get it out of my mind,,, V-Fur,, V-Fur,,,,, V-Fur,,,,,,,,, only one cure for a guy who keeps seein V-Fur,,,, its more V-Fur's!!!!!!!

Backinthesaddle Posted May 25, 2017 #184 Posted May 25, 2017 So here I sit in a laundry mat washing sleeping bags with nothing better to do than go through all the pictures on the Yamaha journey site. After going through all 280 + pictures I noticed that there was not one picture of a warrior, zero zip, nada.
BigLenny Posted May 30, 2017 #185 Posted May 30, 2017 I was looking at the web for discussions others are having about the soon to be announced touring model from Yammy. I came across this thread on the Indian owners forum. Take a look at the 5th post down by Cheezyrider. Could this be talking about a certain beloved VR.org member? Lol. http://www.indianmotorcycles.net/threads/yamaha-to-announce-new-tourer-june-5th.170865/ Big Lenny
Flyinfool Posted May 30, 2017 #186 Posted May 30, 2017 That sure does sound like he is talking about one of out beloved members. There is only one person/couple on the planet that could meet that description. @cowpuc
Guest Posted May 30, 2017 #188 Posted May 30, 2017 There can only be one person that they are talking about.....will they step up `and admit it???

Who in hells half acre does he think he is, calling a fair dame like Tweeks ugly? Little did he know when he met her, that he just ran across one of the great fair lady's of the all of the motorcycle world. Tweeks has seen and experienced more in her lifetime than any old Indian will experience in 10 lifetimes. And she's done it all with un-equalled reliability and class. I really hope you're gonna feel up to going to the unveiling! Be sure and take a lotta pics and some of your famous videos. BL

Tweeksis has been kind of down in the dumps lately,, was thinkin she was a little preturbed with me about all the time I been spending ripping up the roads on my bucket list R1.. Just not feeling herself and I wasnt sure why.. Also, on the way home from "Sams Joint" (grandsons house = his name is Sam) I noticed some strange vibes and told Tip I thought it was tire time - checked the rear,, sure enough = cords just starting to peak thru in one small spot.. Spent yesterday spooning on a new rear tire - picked up a Kenda Challenger - right size 140/90 "C" rated, 77h for load rating, not a bad looking tire for $45 bucks.. I LOVE testing cheap tires. Worst I ever got was 3500 miles from a 404 Dunny - this new Kenda is WAY beafier than the Dunny - cant wait to see how she wears - hoping to try er out on a rip across Canada to catch that unveiling - will definitely take LOTS of pics to share if we are able to make it = want to go REALLY REALLY bad.. Did her tuning, oil change and all that too.. Noticed some odd readings on the sync gauges,, found out she had an issue with a diaphram.. Poor things been draggin a cylinder for a while = these things run amazingly well on 3 cylinders but WOW does she like the repair Swear I saw her at Maggie the R1 a bit ago!! PS = the light spot on the diaphram is light from my pen light shining thru ,, there were FIVE of those holes:scared:
snyper316 Posted June 1, 2017 #198 Posted June 1, 2017 Yeah I got to pull tinkers heart and give it a transplant... I have one artery just about clamped off excessive bleeding on number 2... Litteraly a 16th out. Other then that I am seeing high 30s... 40 when I am minding my p's and q's.... I have feeling when I get bored and do it I will probably be doing better as far as mpg... But off season maybe but do want to throw them on just to check them out.. And take a look at the jet blocks that are on tinker atm... Sent from my LG-K371 using Tapatalk
BlueSky Posted June 1, 2017 #199 Posted June 1, 2017 That Kenda surely does look like a beefy tire. Report back on how it performs and wears.
