  1. Build Date Jan/2018 Vin 0141 Grey SVTC and loving it!!!! I was just looking at the decoder after I posted this, and it looks like you have to take in account the "Build Date" 8th last digit. Mine is JA000141 I am wondering if the vin's corresponds (for example NOHAWGS o6/17 #262 ) would his vin be J*000262 or H*000262 H = 2017 J = 2018
  2. OHHH I'm drooling and my wife is giving me a funny look. Now I have to start saving again to get the Eluder trims.
  3. The worst part right now is living in an area where you get 3-4 days of nice weather(enough to start melting the ice), then a dump of snow over night. Spent the last few days trying to familiarize myself with the gizmos on the bike. ARG so frustrating!!
  4. I don't know if this came thru or not, but Gen 1 meets Gen 3
  5. Talked to a Yamaha rep at the Calgary Motorcycle Show today. Bikes should start rolling out late January, early February. They wanted to tweek some things. Strengthen and improve the Parkassist handle. Redesign weather seals for storage compartments. And other little things. I have only ridden Inlines, so it might take a little to get used to the V-twin. I gotta say the balance is really low and easy. I still hate the waiting, but what can you do?
  6. XV1100SE, I know Alberta has yet to take deliveries and I'm hoping to be the first. Have any arrived in Ontario yet?
  7. The Dealer didn't even have a demo unit yet. But I was told I should be able to pick it up late October, Fingers crossed
  8. To just keep things interesting, her favorite color is Red. ...So I went with Metallic Grey...
  9. Well I bit the bullet, might be sleeping on the couch for awhile. Just order a 2018 Yamaha Venture TC. This is going to be my first BRAND NEW bike. The suspense is going to kill me until delivery(or the better half)
  10. Wondering if any one ever made a list of Bolts and sizes for Covers, Reservoirs, ect for the MKII first gen? Looking to replace with new socket cap hardware and the various parts list don't provide measurements. I am not ready yet to pull individual bolts yet to measure. Thnx
  11. I have to give this to my Doctor, AFTER my colonoscopy on Monday. Don't want him laughing and trying to run the hidden camera
  12. From the last voice. Sounds like they were trying to blow the motor.
  13. Not to worry, I haven't stripped down the '83 or the '86 yet Rocket. But its getting very tempting:stirthepot:
  14. I like dunlop 491's (E2) , was so happy when they started making them again.
  15. Would anyone know of a company that will rewind automotive /motorcycle stators, preferably western canada northwest states. With a third stator on its way, I now have 2 burned stators andif I get them rewound I'll have 2 spares:cool10: Thanks Markus (calgaryrider)
