Well no pics yet but the boys from fond a lac yamaha were not so responsive when it came to making the bitch roadworthy.Went over her thursday and found a fairly major oil leak ...cam cover and at the cam tensioner, she was supposed to be tuned and all fluids changed. I checked a bit further and no air filter was present and mid and final drives were topped off to the threads of the fill plugs.re did the tune up and visited with my brother for a while and hit the road this tuesday. Short hop to Chi town caught a Cubs game and enjoyed the company. Woke on Wednesday and rode 5000 mi to Pa.no major issues ,plenty of pep etc no leaks but the front end felt funny on occasions. Thursday at around 9:45 on I 80 the ride got interesting running at about 75 down a large hill the front tire decided to blow 
.Thankfully a tire repair rig was right behind me and threw his flashers on, can't belive I'm sitting here posting this 
but rode it out and the tow truck guy was as amased as I was funny but a post from here was running thru my head "don't quit riding" the deer story Thanks . Driver of the tow rig figured me down at least 6 times. Got her done and wound up on the shoulder with th bike between my legs. threw a new tire on the front and took the long way the rest of the way home. Anyhow think I'll keep her!!!
