Do you have the orange rear wheel?

Do you know what fitment issues might occur trying to install this on a 2017 RC390? Anything a guy with a saw and a TiG couldn't handle? I loved the underbelly exhaust on the '15 and '16, it would be awesome to make one work for my '17!

Thanks for that info! I'll be getting into it this week, and if I can't figure it out it'll go to the mechanic. Either way, I'll post an update.

There is no fault code my Elm327 or Fixd OBD2 modules can read. Apparently, I unintentionally worship at cult of Steve Jobs so I'm using 'Car Scanner' for iOs instead of Torque. It reads what appears to be all of the data streams for this bike but no fault codes, stored or otherwise. Not sure...

Whew! And here I was, afraid it could be something serious. ;)

I was adding a washer between the stand and the bolt so that the magnet would rest more firmly onto the sensor body, and I completely spaced that the bolt was brass and sheared it off. If any racers have removed your kickstand, or others who have bypassed the side-stand sensor, could let go of...

Hello, just what the title says. I have a 2017 and I want to upgrade my suspension. Apparently, the Yamaha R-series rear shock absorbers that are compatible don't fit 2017+ RC390s without deleting the cat. I'm pretty darned ok with the bike's performance on the street and highway, so I really...
