Last year I noticed seversl brown spots above the full line in my radiator resivor tank. I realized the resivor cap line went to the top outlet of my 2008 AE water pump. I removed the pump and looked at the parts diagram Partshark . Only repair parts, I was not going to use a puller to remove...

Jim you forgot it has Hiway pegs they look like Gaurald engine mounted brackets with different pegs. Low milage AE. Good luck with the sale. Louis

Jeff.patriceh while you are looking at those distribution clips that look shiny coat them with Ox Guard etc anti corrosion paste. They will stay that way we used a solid copper wire and hammered it flat and soldered it on the flat side and ran the other end to the ground to the battery. My...

Ive know Dan for 40 years Ive always done my own maintance too but not on a FJR1300 Yamaha. Dan and I and several others use ride FJ1100/1200 ( I still have my 86 FJ1200) we had big fun learning how to degree the cams, re installing the head after having them ported etc. Dan moved on to sport...

Dan did all this in my shop I helped, but Dan did most of it showing me how to remove the 3 bushings etc in Gen II forks. But Dan is not joking ALL of the axle, fork pinch bolts, triple tree bolts ALL were just snugged. I was SHOCKED the fork tubes did not push up and hit the the handle bars...

My point was my rear LED trunk lights need 12 volts. 11 didn't turn them on like a Halogen bulb. Reason I asked if you jumped wired 12 volts from the battery to your headlights . If you did and headlights worked. Use VOM trace back to headlights power at main fuse block. Your Gen III is...

Did you use a VOM meter and see if you have 12 volts at the headlight sockets? I installed the GIVI LED lights in my trunk and one day they stopped working. I checked power to them 11 volts. The Addmore tail light harness was the problem, replaced it they work. My point LED lights will NOT...

Keith did you find out why your headlight was not working?

How did you hold the cartridge nut inside so you could torque the bolt at the end of the fork where the axle goes? Dan made a tool that slides over the shaft inside to hold the cartridge nut.

Remove the top trunk and more detail

The fix AE = Advanced Edition with YCCS or Yamaha Chip Control System the clutch is engaged electrically. I have a 2008 AE that I really enjoy that it does not have a clutch lever in traffic. If you have Facebook there is a AE Forum Group . Louis
