what part of ohio?

Why are you putting it that far forward? mine is almost at the end of the swing arm.

I need to go back and find that article...I loved that when I read it the first time...need to reread it...

Chad, Are you still on here? I have some questions for you.

Why? Master link chains are just as good if not better!

38,000 on mine...there was another thread about this and I believe there were a few with over 100,000 miles

I will third all of this..

Actually I am at 36k now... first two years were about 11-12 k each next three years were 3k each and this year is pushing to be 8k so far. It was 531 miles last weekend and probably another 470 this weekend...

At 20k when I had mine done the mechanic said only the outer two needed adjustment....remember to cam chain tensioners too as they are notorious for going bad!

I believe the yellow ones are textured for better grip when installing or removing...I believe that to be the only difference.

I missed your first post but welcome to the forum...there is a facebook group too.. That being said there used to be quite a few of us in the area... and we did meet to go riding semi frequently...not so much any more... I don't know if you have been down to brown county yet but there are...

Simple review - I am not a big fan.... They are nice bags, but construction and design definitely need help especially after 3 years of riding with them... I had the nut on the back of one of the locks come apart....and the lock tumbler pulled out when I went to pull my key out.

After 2 weeks with the crud I rode mine today

looks good...sorry about being away...vacation..job loss and new job have tied me up...

Ever since Yamaha forced all the groups to change names to protect their copyrighted bike model names the decline has been substantial across all domains.... its funny how some manufacturers embrace forums like this and some try to dismantle them... Almost like they have something to hide.
