TC... Thanks ...got mine today... The patch looks even better in person...love the way all the "chrome" and the lettering sparkle...I knew it was worth the wait!
Ditto from here.... The patch looks better than the photo.
Yamaha should take notice. With what has been learned in the last thirty years... What kind of XS1100 could they build now.
IF they could keep their focus.

Eat your hearts out...
Well, it's been a week, and I've already sold 25 patches. Due to the Yamaha Copyright imposed production limit of 100 patches, this was why I had put the 1 patch per household/Xsive limit to allow as many separate Xsives/households to be able to acquire this patch. I have stated that after 1 month...a reasonable amount of time for the "ACTIVE" Xsives who visit the site to be able to see the announcement that they are now available to have the opportunity to order a patch, before I then allow REPEAT members to get an extra patch for their Swmbo/child, etc..
I have been informed that there is a strong interest from our UK contingent to acquire these patches. I don't/haven't kept track of all of the UK folks that visit the site, I'm sure there are many lurkers that don't post. I haven't meant for these patches to be ONLY for the USA/CANADA Xsives, but do want to allow as many of the LOCALs to get a chance to see and order the patch. It's only 2 stamps more to send one of these to the UK/EURO/Finland, even Australia and New Zealand, so there would NOT be any extra charge to do so!
I would like to request 1 more week for the USA/Canada Xsives to place orders, and then I would be more than happy to accept orders from our International Xsives! However, I will prefer to sell them INDIVIDUALLY, not a block/multiple sale to a UK Xsive for redistribution. This way, the International Xsives that actually visit the site, contribute to it, will then essentially verify that they learned about the patch firsthand, and will have then placed their order.
I hope this sounds fair, and that I don't mean to offend anyone with this whole process. I am flattered, but yet proud of the demand and quality of the patch that I was able to get made, just wish I could have been able to make more!? For those International Xsives that DON'T have Paypal, they will be able to notify me via PM of their intent to order/mail their payment, and I will then be able to RESERVE one for them while awaiting the envelope!

For those that have only seen the end of this thread, Please be aware that I am limiting the sale of 1 patch per household for the first month to ensure that everyone gets a fair chance to have at least one. THEN after the initial sale rush, IF there are any leftover, then I'll let others have a repeat chance for an extra one. Due to Yamaha's Copyright permission/restrictions, only 100 were made. I hope everyone understands this process. I'm keeping track of who all have ordered, and the first batch have already been put in the mail!

What do I need to do to order a patch?
Thanks
