Does this bike still exist? I remember seeing a video where you destroyed one T700

It was a cool looking one for sure, really appreciate the styling. It’s a shame the bike had to be wrecked.

Sharing my bike. I bought it used from a gentleman in Wetaskiwin. He was forced to sell as bike didn’t work out for him because of his height. (Shorter rider tall bike) He order the bike in advance made upgrades right away as well. Somewhat got lucky and paid him in full asking price. From Jasper Alberta.

Love the compass decal you added. The bike stands out from others without major skinning being required. Well done.

I'm the same height and ended up lowering with a link by 20 mm and I bought the low seat from Yamaha and scraped another inch off the height.  Now the bike fits and it's not so intimidating.   Jasper eh?  This means us flatland types will have to arrange a ride to the most beautiful mountains in the world. IMO.   Then we can have lunch and cruise back on the back roads.  What say you?

Welcome to the forum too.

Thanks for the compliment.  I love the bike. I'm in Spruce Grove so no excuse to hook up in the spring.  

Yes, albertadualsport.ca.  I am one of the original members from when it all first started back in 2001.  Thanks to Dave, the administrator, the site is most excellent.  

 

2021 Spring Ride to Tomahawk Alberta.  Somewhere around 25 dual sporters rode a predetermined route and didn't use any social distancing.  Living on the edge...

My bike original owner did the same with links and seat and riding the bike with His settings. I still tiptoeing but, Doable I think the OEM height will be much more harder.

Calgary, AB here as well.  She's holding up pretty well to the unrelenting abuse I put her through. 

 

It's interesting how many Albertans are here; I so very rarely see T7's around.  I think I've seen two in the wild since 2020.

I'm really interested in checking out a bit of motocamping.  Would totally be up for a Jasper group ride & camp.
