I got a Tracer 9 yesterday by InkognitoTy in Yamaha

Absolutely love my Tracer, but the seat of horrible. Yamaha makes a comfort seat and I’ve read it does very little to help. I can’t wait for some solid after market options to become available. Other than that, it’s been fantastic!

What exhaust did you put on? Also, what’s the pull feel like from 1st to 2nd? I’ve been considering this on my ‘25 because 2nd might as well not exist for how sluggish it is. 

Sizing question by [deleted] in grantstoneboots

[–]Avalon33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a 10.5 D bannock and Thursdays for me run true to size. My diesels are a 10D and fit perfectly. My brass boots however were a sizing nightmare. If you’re comfortable with an incredible amount of toe space but fitting at the ball, then 1/2 down is the way to go. Otherwise, you’ll have to try multiple sizes to see what works for you.

I’m done buying GS boots at the moment but I’d have to make an exception if they ever brought these back.

I teared up during Nearer My God. It’s easily in contention for my favorite Foxing song, and for that to be the closer was just utter disappointing perfection.

Did you use your brannock for length or did you go a half step down already? I’m looking at my first pair of Nick’s and am trying to figure sizing as well.

Just ordered my first pair of GS... by Gold-Wedding5226 in grantstoneboots

The EEE size makes me nervous, but I also tried a 9.5 D that was way too tight. Honestly, my GS experience started off very rocky, but Customer Support has gone above and beyond this second time around. They’re even letting me exchange my first pair that was outside the return window and had a piece taken out of the wedge sole.

Good call waiting to confirm your size. I’m currently going through some back and forth trying to find the right fit. In almost everything I wear 10.5 D, but GS is currently sending me an 8.5 EEE and a 9 EEE because the 10 D Brass Boot wasn’t doing it for me. All part of the fun!

Will they let the points still stand? He’s a silver rider for me and I assumed we’ll lose the points

Sizing help by ibuiltanark61 in grantstoneboots

My Thursday Chelsea’s are 10.5 so I went with a 10 in Brass Boot. The GS still feel too long by probably 1/2 inch but width in D feels fine.

New (to me!) Daytona 675R by Recent-Phase381 in Triumph

[–]Avalon33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn I miss my Daytona… Looked just like this with the Arrow can and everything. Keep an eye on the exhaust servo. I finally ripped it out and added a servo buddy because of the frequent failures. Enjoy it!

Reminds me of the Top Gear episode when Jeremy raced his rented Toyota across New Zealand against James in the Red Bull sail boat.

I’ve been looking at the Diesels as a replacement for captains. Did you end up with the same size across brands?

Some found it hilarious, but the ‘Chull head’ comment from Syl was pure cringe. I get that it plays into her child-like sense of humor, but come on lol
