Eh, don't let them get to you...it's been about 5 years since Musky and I established white bikes are the fastest, and they've been trying to prove otherwise ever since. And you picked a good year R*, too!
Thank you. Nah, I'm not bothered. Nothing like a little hazing...no big deal...we're guys (most of us)...it's what we do...

Could you elaborate on the charging system issues?

2004 is the year Yamaha switched the motor from 1600cc to 1700cc, but they left the already-underpowered charging system from the 1999-2003 models on the 2004 model year. The charging system didn't get upgraded until 2005, so we kind of fell in between the cracks.

Someday I'll get the 2005 stator/regulator and put them in, but until then I can't run 55W passing lamps instead of the 35W OEM ones...if I do it drains the battery...
