Title: 150 by 10
Post by: klaviator on September 17, 2019, 08:58:38 PM
September has been hotter than July and August with temperatures in the mid 90s nearly every day.  I was itching to go for a real ride, not just 20 or 30 miles around town.  So I got up early and went for a ride.  I rode 150 miles in Alabama and Tennessee and was done before 10 AM.

Majestys are very handsome scooters!
How's it running for you? There was some rumbling about hard to service air filters, was it?
Yamaha makes good stuff. Every bit as nice as a Forza, IMHO, and both preferable to a Burgman.
But I'm prejudiced 😊

You have an eye for composition. Great photos. I see you kept the after-market seat cushion.

It's been running great.  The air filters were a real PITA to replace the first time.  Some of the fasteners didn't want to come out and I had to drill them out.  There are three air filters.  Now that I replaced some of the crappy OEM fasteners it's not so bad but still takes a while to replace all three filters.  I didn't replace the belt and rollers until 18,500 miles and they still looked fine.

It's been a great scooter and I got a great deal on it. 

Most important it's been real fun to ride. 

One of my favorite pics of my Majesty was taken by one of the professional photographers at Deal's Gap as I rode by.
