It is much more comfortable than the stock seat. I'm not sure about the saddleman. When I ordered it I exaggerated my inseam from 34 to 36 so it is a little higher than the stock seat. So is the passengers. I used to get sore really quick on the stock seat but not this one. I don't take very long rides though.
Good color....

2016 was the 60yr Yamaha anniversary so 1 off for that year
Almost 12 hours in the saddle yesterday. That's about 350 miles I assume as I used almost 2 full tanks. I don't have any pictures though because my new GoPro 8 with bike power took no pictures, at all! Not even the one with me looking into the lens..... Anyway the setup is pretty hot, and that's what really counts right?
It's too cold, it's too hot. Man you just can't please those Canadians now can you!

Truth. Here in Victoria, it ranges from +5C in the dead of winter to +25C during the summer heat waves.

Getting the small bore stuff out of my system...
T'was merely a test ride after installing a stock exhaust can on the thing. It came with the loudest, most obnoxious HotBodies stubby carbon p.o.s. can when I bought it and I'd had enough of the din and ridicule. Scored the OEM muffler online locally, installed it immediately.
If the bike sticks around, it'll one day get a proper Yosh... if the bike sticks around.

You averaged around 30 mph over 12 hours?
Was guessing at the miles. Remember I don't ride in the open west like you do. I don't ride slow but you do hit traffic and such. I'm just not one of those guys who stresses over the trip odometer readings or gas mileage. In the future I'll be sure to get exact numbers for you though, Lol!

You know our weather...it's crazy sometimes...
I've seen -50'C in the winter and almost +50'C in the summer (with humidex)..

I thought so....Well aware... I grew up in Ottawa.
We even have different weather than Ottawa up here in the Ottawa Valley...when I was travelling there for appointments, we'd have lots and lots of snow and they'd have a little dribble....but it was never vice-versa it seemed.

There's plenty of truth to that!!Must be all of the hot air coming out of Parliament...
Went for a short but enjoyable ride, noticed due to Covid 19, there are more "Sunday drivers" out there rubbernecking around due to being bored at home...
I was running down one road when a kid on the side made the universal sign for wheelie...as I was already doing 50mph or so, it would be quite a feat to bring the tire up I reckon...I waved at him and continued on.
Bike sure ran good and the speed shifter makes all the difference sometimes.
