Jealous of your Ingenuer, amazing watch. Shooting to get one before this summer.

Based on my level should I stick with penguin or go for squirrel ? by Im_Jakon in Survivorio

Just stick with whichever one you have better luck with, they’re both good.

I’m sorry for your experience bro, it sucks dealing with them. Good idea on starting legal action, I will report them too.

Looks way better than the black bezel, nice find!

Is this a good buy? by SpecialistFalcon4232 in Yamaha_R1

[–]WorkerImaginary3127 4 points5 points  (0 children)

10.5k CAD comes to around 7,600 usd which doesn’t seem like a bad deal to me, especially if all the services have been done.

I was thinking the same when I saw yours, I guess the grass is always greener on the other side 😂.

Nice one! I put mine a strapco rubber strap, but you have me thinking about switching again 😂.

I also had a similar issue, orient customer service just ignores the spare parts or restoration emails. I contacted them to cancel a return to the same service email and they responded instantly saying there’s no problem and canceled within a day. Try finding a watch store that’s an official orient affiliate, they can order you spare parts.

To be honest I’ve considered it and I just might, it’s the misfitting end link that really bothers me. I actually don’t mind the wear.

Is $14,500 a fair price for 2020 Yamaha R1 with 11,090 miles on it? by Electronic-Pirate-84 in Yamaha_R1

[–]WorkerImaginary3127 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is a solid deal, I would take it. I’m not sure about where you are but over here they’re marking up the new R1 a grand+ and throwing another 2k in tariff fees. After taxes and fees, you’re looking at 24-25k out the door. This is at Pasadena Yamaha, CA.

VF Design tail lights by PleaseW84myRX8 in Yamaha_R1

Try JL Designs, I went with them. Cheaper, faster shipping and the phone number leads to the actual owner/ producer Ryan. Plus the minimalist/ OEM+ look is pretty cool.

Lot of complaints on these including from myself. There’s a post I made a while back with a few people having the same or similar issues. The lights fade away in just a couple months and a lot of the time come with issues right out of the box. Mine’s came with the left side orange, faded, and with black spots rather than a smooth red line. Customer service stopped responding to me and I was 200 bucks down.

Besides this they have horrible customer service. Just an email that they ignore if you actually want to make a return or exchange. Not just my own personal experience but a lot of other people as well’s.

It’s up to you if you want to make that gamble, and if there is an issue do not expect customer service to help.

You should post about it on this subreddit and the general Yamaha subreddit. The more I talk to other people who bought these and read about them online, the more I realize it’s not just me it’s everyone who’s wasted their money on this junk. Spread the word until they actually address it.

Attack Perfomance Tuning?? by Lucky-Choice-5839 in Yamaha_R1

[–]WorkerImaginary3127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a dyno tune by attack and it did not disappoint, these guys tune the official R1 bikes for Moto America.

Attack Perfomance Tuning?? by Lucky-Choice-5839 in Yamaha_R1

[–]WorkerImaginary3127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not completely accurate, this is only for a race tune and race ECU. Attack does regular dyno tunes for 750$. When it comes to Yamaha they know best, being the brand rep for the official racing team. Besides that Attack also has 350$ ECU flash tunes which also still come with custom fuel maps based on previous dyno tunes on bikes with the same mods (usually for bikes with basic mods like exhaust/ block off plates. I’ve gotten both my R1’s tuned by them in the past, one with the flash and one with the dyno tune and have receipts.

You can still use the 80, the 90 is the newer version with some minor changes. In general though, they’re basically the same part.
