lockdoc Posted July 9, 2008 #1 Posted July 9, 2008 I decided to go ahead and order a new "i"clutch basket to see if it will help tone down the whine a little. My local dealer here in Perth wants more than $450 just for the part. After reading thru the threads here I found Mr. Cycles part no. 4xy-16150-09-00 and checking the site its listed at $206.78. Once I put my order in the amount of $226.00 was requested for freight. I was expecting to pay a few bucks but that seems like daylight robbery to me or is it to make sure it costs me $450 whichever way I go. I'm trying now to get a quote from boats.net store. They quote $227.92 plus shipping. Steve

Do you know any of themembers here that you can have it shipped to in the US and then have them send it as a personal item? Would that help? It cost me about 60 bucks just to get a wheel chock shipped up to me from California to western Canada. It sucks!! I think I am going to make a list of what I might need for the next year and have alook for it all when I am in California next month and just bring it back and save shipping.....if I have room...

lockdoc Posted July 11, 2008 Author #3 Posted July 11, 2008 Boats.net will ship an i basket to Australia for $37. A bit different to Mr Cycles $227
Freebird Posted July 11, 2008 #4 Posted July 11, 2008 This is interesting to me because this is the first time I've heard of anybody being able to obtain an "I" basket. The word until this was that it was ONLY available from Yamaha as a warranty replacement. Make sure you are actually getting an "I" basket and please let us know if you do get it.
Venturous Randy Posted July 11, 2008 #6 Posted July 11, 2008 I would assume the basket is for the 04? and do you have the 5 year warranty? RandyA
TEW47 Posted July 11, 2008 #7 Posted July 11, 2008 Picked up my bike today after they changed out the clutch basket. It was real quiet when I left, but when I got about ten miles down the road it started to whine a little,not as much as before. I will put Mobile 1 10 W 40 it it next week and see how it works. tew47
