    Good things come in little packages: Yamaha TW200

    You get one yet?!? I’m in Costa Mesa and ride Saddleback quite a bit! Carb - no issues! But I did have it jetted for my FMF pipe and they run lean off the dealer floor. Get it and get it over GUSTIN Motorsports and tell them the Yamaha TDUB Club sent you! Let’s go TDUBBIN!!

    98 Jeep ZJ "SHTFV"

    OK, I see your point now! I too have the non-bluetooth version and is supercool. I thought the bluetooth version was a bit gimmicky and or car-show-guy'ish, but having access to light from within your TT makes good sense!

    Front Runner Slimline II Roof Rack - Choice & Installation / 80-Series Land Cruiser

Another cool feature of these clamps are the small set screws that are limiting bolts to keep the clamp bolts from...

    MPG VS MPG Hello KBAHUS, Thank you for your question. While I usually get around 14-mpg, I think I got around 11-mpg on this trip. But some items to consider...
