I just got into the 2006 Stratoliner S. I casually traded in my 2004 Roadstar (yes, my wife wants to shoot me!)
If this were the perfect world the Strato needs:
1) better helmet lock (cord loop is time consuming-a hook alone is good enough.)
2) Saddlebags, I love the styling, but need more room - at least a leather jacket fits in it,
the mink oil jar is a sweet treat,
3) air filter servicing must have been a compromise, 'cause you need to loosen the tank to
get to it, and at 4K checks, it'll be a pain
3) transfer fluid replacement involves removing the EXUP, can a backyard mech. do that? Hmmm.
I am now officially a Yamaha rider for life, the Roadstar had just 11K mi. and only broke the seat release (embarrassing at trade-in time.)
Upgrades/Accessories: Run/Turn/Brake Module from Kurkyan - solder your connections, if possible.
