differences?

Any other than color changes one can gather from the specs?

It was only a matter of time...

...before they wised up and brought the faster blue color back. I'm not sure about the two-toned business though I'll wait to see it in person before I make up my mind on that. I hate to see there is no Black Cherry either as that was my 2nd favorite color.

I was pretty confident that there would be a 2009 model, especially since the 1300 was one of the test rides at Star Days.

2009 V* 1300

Yammy remains fairly consistent in one area: Yammy normally change color schemes from one year to the next in most of their models across the board. They also will re-introduce a color from time to time if it was popular during its earlier go-around. I read last last year that a blue Tourer was desired by many who, instead, bought the blue non-tourer and added the shield, bags and back rest. Well, perhaps Yammy listened to enough people who felt that same way to finally introduce one.

Enjoy your week.

Inquiring minds want to know...

Hey Morg,

So, is that tailight really LED now? Or did they forget that was wrong again?
