    Are OEM brake pads for a 2014ES sintered?

    The rear still has the original OEM pads I clean the piston on it too like the front. I doubt I'll take it apart yet I'm easy on the rear and bleed both brakes and clutch every set of tires or two years.

At 59,000 miles last set of tires I replaced my brake pads and after inserting a a thin piece of wood to expose my pistons in...

    Light kit for trunk

    I like the added turn signals on the back side of the bags. No doubt what direction you are turning in the dark. The light bars break up how wide the bag looks is hanging off the frame from the rear. The decal with large Yamaha tuning forks makes the bags look thinner thinner. I know you can't...

    Would you pay the Dealer or Replace ABS brake lines Yourself?

    I wouldn't let a dealer touch.my FJR1300 good thing it's a 2008 AE most Yamaha dealers will not repair a Yamaha that is older then 10 years. Most dealers have very little maintenance experience with a FJR especially my 2008 AE.. If your brake lines are not rotted, cracked etc I wouldn't change...

    2007 waits until water pump failure doesn't create a disaster

    Last year I noticed oil spots above the full line in my radiator resivor tank. The hose from the tank goes to the top outlet of the water pump. The mechanical oil seal behind the impeller was starting to fail. I purchased a Gen III pump vs parts to repair. The resivor had crack on the inside I...

    2007 waits until water pump failure doesn't create a disaster

    I would replace the pump with a Gen III vs purchasing parts to repair it. I went thru this on my 2008 and realized Yamaha only sold replacement parts for Gen I/II. Then looked at new Gen III for parts and realized Yamaha sold a complete pump assembly. I found a 2018 pump Ebay 21,000 miles $50 I...
