2008 Yamaha Drive
I just purchased a 2008 Yamaha Drive with 2 year old trojan 12V batteries for 1800, i think i got a pretty good deal, I love the cart. The seat has a pretty good sized rip in it, it does not look like the seat cover can be replaced since its molded into the plastic base. I found the part for the seat assembly onliine for about $100, does anyone know if it is the entire seat, cushion, cover, and base, just bolt it on?
http://www.boats.net/parts/detail/ya...401-00-00.html Also, I read about unhooking the regen braking will speed it up some, has anyone done this and does it make a noticable difference? I was thinking of doing the ptv code upgrade through a dealer, does anyone know how much this costs? I would appreciate any help with these questions. |

Re: 2008 Yamaha Drive
It will be complete less hinges and handles. You can get a cover only for it and staple underneath the seat covering the black plastic. You will need a very heavy duty air stapler.

Re: 2008 Yamaha Drive
That's a good price on the seat. Don't recommend unplugging the motor sensor, the controller reads off it to function correctly.

Re: 2008 Yamaha Drive
I used to charge 1 hr labor ($70.00) to reprog the drive controller to the ptv code.

Re: 2008 Yamaha Drive
I bought a replacement seat cover (60.00) and used a hand stapler with no issues (had to use a small hammer to drive some of them in all the way). Yes, it covers up the plastic trim, but you dont even notice it after its on.

Re: 2008 Yamaha Drive
Yamaha Road Star is more comfortable and has eliminated vibration from the floorboards, seat and handlebars. Yamaha Road star 2008 has fuel-injected motor which gives superb driving experience.
