The black rubber molding on the top of each side of schroud, is that supposed to be glued on?

I'm missing one on my 225. ( Left side and having a hell of a time finding one ) I'm pretty sure they are just held between the shroud & tank by compression when you mount the shrouds. If there was any glue on mine, all signs of it are gone.

I have one of those.No they are just held in place buy the groove on it.

Awful small groove. I don't trust that at all. Yamaha should have made it insert into the plastic at a few places.

I'm going to put clear contact on it (the inside) so it holds.

If it is properly instaled it shouldn't come out.

Yea, but still, I want it to stay on when I take the tank off at not fall off.

How often do you do that?

If the trike is totally mud covered - every time for washing.

That's why so many up in that section are somehwat rusted and filthy. Some are just too lazy to take 5 -10 minutes at most and pull it off.

That's also why I like the rear fender to come off as a whole unit. I clean where you don't see also.

Mud gets up in those spots, holds the moisture in and before you know it parts start the good old rust process.

I have went muddin only about 5 times.Everytime it gets a compleat cleaning.
