Thought my Yager was all I needed until the wife INSISTED I get a new bike which was the DT300i. Yager still is a great bike. Too bad they stopped production. That is where they shoulda put another 25 ccs!

Sorry to hear you have been under the weather Dedee. I am glad you are back on the mend sir. I am blessed to be living down here in the southern US where the weather is never really too bad to ride for any extended time. Just curious, have you thought of getting grip warmers? Now that I have them, I will not do without them.

Considering a DT300i, Forza 300, BV350 & CityCom for my wife's larger touring scoot (Yager for around town)
What is your impression?
Seat too low? Not enough leg room?
I've heard that alot.

I'm going to have to live my love of the Yager through you De Dee. I saw on Craigslist a guy in the down next to mine selling a Yager for $1200.00. Super tempting. There's no reason to get it other than I miss my original one.

Sounds like an easy job De dee. Does the new windscreen do the job?
Title: Re: what have you done to your yager today,?
Post by: de dee on June 28, 2017, 08:18:01 PM
Yes it does the job,.   it is narrow thou, and the wind hits my arms, and I am tall and  ahem!! slim,  not holding arms close 32 "
wide,  at the elbows,.  and my head is in the wind too,.but it seems some of the bugs are missed, from the wind-shield, my visor is almost bug free,.

riding my frost - yager  picking up car parts again,  busted a coil spring , 2012 elantra and only dealers supply springs it seems
 and they want over $ 300.00 for it, feels like getting screwed with no kiss,  moog in Texas has springs but you need all the Spec.s to get the right spring ,  and they don't list Hyundia parts, should have bought a chevvy,.  finaly bought the parts at a junk yard,.  nice ride out in the country side,.  good day for working, over 90 F.  today,.  should lose some baby fat with that heat,  job done,.  going for a ride again for relaxing ,.

I was checking for codes with the diagnostic tool,  there was a few of them ,so I cleared them and tried to see what would happen with engine running and it started up and seems to run smoothly, I will have to ride it for a few miles to check it out to see if it goes back to missing,   WHAT DID I DO,!!!????  TO MAKE IT RUN SO NICE,
