    What is the average age of an RX1 rider

    58/ wanna know why the average age is older than you thought/ It's cause we've got tired of breaking down, fooling with plugs, belts and oil, not to mention frozen fingers while trying to keep a sled running/ and most important of all-We're ahead of the learning curve- we see what's coming- it's...

    What are your opinions on Yamaha's Extended Service Plan?

    Your using the numbers quoted by Yamaha/ the dealers have about a fifty percent mark up on this item/ from the dealers point of view this is handled like the sale of any other extra-- like clothing etc/ My dealer sold me the EXTRA four years for 550/ I've seen on this site where some have got it...

    What are your opinions on Yamaha's Extended Service Plan?

    We visited this issue last year and opinions haven't changed much/ if your going to modify the sled or trade every year then DONT buy it/Now lets look at it from the other end/ lets say you paid 500-600 for the extension and didn't use it/If you only put 1500-2000 miles a year then in three...

    Trailering the RX1...do I need to valve the fuel lines?

    I rarely trailer mine but for the cost of a couple shutoffs and a half hour of time I put them on/ cheap insurance/ and even if you got Yamaha to cover it do you want to ruin that weekend or vacation and have the sled tied up for a couple of weeks while the dealer waits for parts etc./ also...

    Vector or RS Rage

    Take Suisse Sledders advise/ he's on the money/Get her the ride and a matching outfit/ as far as which motor only you folks can determine if the 4 banger is too much power for her/ as a backup the 3 banger should do to trick/ We went to the show and my wife wants the RS Venture/ guess what she's...

    Does anyone make a aftermarket seat or FOAM for rx-1??

    I met a guy at the show in Syracuse that makes a spring loaded seat/ at the time he had not started with Yamaha seats however indicated that with enough interest he might make them/ he was doing the seats for Cats/ I told him I thought he'd do well with the Yammies as they had ( at that time)...

    Okay/ Okay/ I got it/ Also when I was at the Yamaha show (in Bangor, Maine) I talked to a rep/ he said that if I had hooked it to the charging system it wouldn't work/ however since I hooked to the battery I was okay/ keeping in mind that the suit does draw more than the charging system...

    Gerbing heated clothing/3000 mile report

    The "thermostate" that I got from Gerbing works as you stated/ cycling on and off at a rate determined by where the dial is set/ however when the thermo is demanding power, even though it is intermintant, it is still calling for 77watts while cycled on/the thing is I honestly don't understand...
