As noted above, this is a single year production bike, so you won’t see many like it. It is based off the very popular Yamaha Bolt 950 V-twin cruiser. This means many aftermarket accessories and original OEM parts will always be readily available. This bike draws a lot of attention and curiosity questions at the gas pumps or local events.

I bought one recently. Nice bike. I put the standard foot pegs and rear brake and shift levers from a Bolt on mine. More comfortable riding position.

Why are you selling if I may ask?
The hours spent riding my Enduros is not deducted from my life span.

There are just too many distracted drivers on the road. You are surrounded by people looking at their phones or fingering the touch pad on their dashboards. Or both!

At 65 years old I get more enjoyment out of taking one of my enduros for a ride on the gravel roads that are all around me. I can visit my boys via gravel roads. I have at least 5 or 6 burger bars that are all accessible via gravel roads. None of my enduros are street legal, but I simply wave if the police drive by, and they just wave back.

If I lay it down it will hurt, but I won’t get run over by the guy behind me who is reading a text message. Plus I am looking to add another enduro real soon. Putting the 950 up for sale was my way of getting upper management approval on this next enduro.

I understand.

When I was in high school driver's education class in 1971 the instructor gave us a very stern warning. Beware of the distraction that the push buttons on the FM radio and 8 track tape player will cause. And look at what we have today.

What is your next Enduro?

It is a CT2, and it is owned by a friend and fellow member of this forum. It is the perfect bike to wrap up my collection and start focusing on some final retirement goals. I have enough bikes now.

Here is a walk-around video.
After spending an hour detailing it, I don’t think I’m going to budge on my price.
This is such a cool clean bike.

Lol
The subject of this post said (comments welcomed)
But it seems to have been read as (compliments welcomed)
I should have said (opinions welcomed)

That is what I was fishing for. Not sure if I am too high priced or underpriced.
The bike cost $6,600 out the door in 2017. I put about another 3k into it, and kept all the original equipment except the hideous seat foam. I cut it up and used it on my yellow JT. The issue seems to be lack of interest in a “retro styled” overweight cruiser conversion. Boy there’s a sales pitch for ya!

Schu, the eye candy… bike… sez it all. I’m a couple years under yer age and a big bike like that only has me dreaming…” I wishes I had one years ago”.
I think you posting some picts and staying firm is the best I can give. Now I’ll go look at the picts some more! (:
