Seat
 
Thanks for your comments. The seat has not been changed. Still the original one from new I believe.

Yup, it's the stock seat cover!

I did make a thread on new seat covers if you'd like to take a look....

Foru 1 year I hadn't the bike, so in my mind it was more square (aka unconfotable?), so it looked smoother. Today got the bike for a short while -it is overheating- and saw it was the same, but with Yamaha written on the side... :blushing:

Thanks, Vando, I will definitely look at your thread. I have lots to do with the bike, it is not working well...

Don´t worry. Cilinders and most of the head says 2KF.

You can use an VIN decoder to know many caracteristics of your bike, year and place of fabricatión...

You can use this Yamaha VIN Decoder @ Motoverse.com

I cant find this 17 digit number :(
all the numbers i found was till 12 digits :(

Pera,
Thanks for posting the link to the VIN page :thumbup:. How ever, it is asking for a 17 VIN number, yet mine is a mere 9 (nine) on my 3AJ and the nine includes the 3AJ.
Apsogos has 12 numbers on his/her bike.
Is this normal? Can you or someone advise as to why this might be? I tried placing extra zeros (to make 17) before and after the numbers the bike has, to no avail!
My documentation says "declared manufacture was 1988, registered/overseas. So now I am a little bit confused. Although I'm sure there is a perfectly reasonable answer to this.

Anyone :helpsmilie:?

bacardi23 12 Oct 2011 22:56

Yes it's normal... you have to add the engine numbers to complete the VIN number!

Since I've had the bike I've added a screen to keep the wind off the chest. Also put some hand guards from a BMW GS 1150 and changed the tyres to Conti Trail Attacks. These have transformed the bike no end, I would recommend them to anyone who uses the bike on the road only. I intend to change the fork oil to a heavier grade and insert spacers in the forks, paint a few bits that need tyding up (swingarm etc) and maybe add a race can.

Thanks again for all the replies..:thumbup1:
