Just come back from a weekend on the North Norfolk coast with my partner on our XJ6 Diversions. This was out first trip away since we started biking three months ago so it was a bit of a test to see how we got on.
Weather was perfect, warm, dry and sunny. Did about 100 miles from home down to West Runton, stayed overnight at a B&B then took the coast road up to Hunstanton, stopping off at a few places on the way.
Photo shows my red diversion and partners blue one. I've fitted a Power Bronze Airflow (double bubble) light tint screen to mine and she has the genuine Yamaha accessory flip-up screen option. I had that fitted to my bike originally but found that my head was right in the turbulent air coming over the top (I'm 5'11"), works fine for her though as she is shorter than me. The Power Bronze one while not much taller than the original is more effective and cheaper than the Yamaha flip-up screen.
Tailpacks are Kriega US20+US10 on mine and US-10 on her bike. Managed to get two pairs of trainers, jeans, T-shirts, toiletries, bike lock+chain, and her RST leather bike trousers in them, I was quite impressed with just how much you can pack into them.
Only thing I found was that after a couple of hours on the bike, that seat was begining to feel more like the pointy edge of a triangle than a foam padded seat
