#yamaha #motorcycle #yamahabolt #cobraexhaust #motovlog #firstride Met a cool guy up at the Kawasaki Demo Tour in Wake Forest, NC and he offered to let me ride his Yamaha Bolt R-Spec with lots of mods!
I have a 2019 Bolt Raven. I love it. I've been riding for over 50 years so it might be my last bike. It's too cold to ride now where I live. I'll be back in the wind in March. Good video on a sweet looking and sweet sounding Bolt.
I watched this from the beginning and didn't realize until 7:23 you are near Wakefield LOL. I'm in Clayton. I have a Bolt, not R spec I bought from Wake Forest Indian dealer. Love it. I have flat drag bars and a loud exhaust.
@@energywine The gauge is good, and it has a lot of functions. If you like the look, go for it. You will need to get the relocation bracket to mount it like mine.
I am 6'1" and it is a little cramp but I don't look too bad sitting on it, it doesn't look like I'm on a mini bike or like I am doing a slav crouch. There are forward controls kit online that move the foot controls forward 6 inches, not really forward but it makes it more proper mid controls.
Oh okay. Yeah I can see that then. This area was more of a urban environment, I have some more rural type videos from mountains to lakes and beaches if you would like to browse through my other ones!
It was a random person’s bike I met at the Kawasaki event, so the only way I would be able to tell you anything is what the guy talked about in the video. I didn’t get his number but he was pretty cool so that’s why he offered to let me ride it for the channel.
Is that the intake making that hissing noise? On multiple videos you can hear that but nobody seems to mention or comment on it. That would annoy me for sure haha.
Haven’t tried a vmax but going by specs, it’s in a completely different tier and more in line with the new Harley Sportster S than the Bolt would be. Depends on how long you have been riding I guess. If you want something to just cruiser on and don’t need a ton of power then the bolt is a great option.
