I lost faith in K&N after this, https://www.knfilters.com/recallkn204 They where banned from some tracks due to failure causing wreck's. Some other models with the spot welded nut outside of the recall had reported failure's. I couldn't get the one I had on my bike off fast enough. Now I have 6...

AdamK, Nice graphic! I think you got the most commonly worked on items without getting too cluttered. One that might be added but could cause some controversy is the steering head bearing. I did notice that there are some differences in Gen 1,2,3 and ES, A models. Slight but different. Making a...

Ok not literally stretched, but severely stressed. Sounds like he hit the stater and it locked the motor. Not quit as bad as actually running and locking but stessed none the less. But as said better than piece dropping into the crankcase.

I agree with bjgjohnsd, New TC would be cheap insurance from future failure. You have it almost all the way apart anyway. The TC Guides should be undamaged since that offending piece didn't get jammed in between the chain and the guide. Might want to closely inspect the CCT to make sure it's...

Here is a Gen 2 PCV in the for sale section https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/176676-power-commander-v-for-gen-ii/ PM him for more info.

Bike Bandit has the Airglide 5 Medium; Neon Yellow and Red/White on sale in stock. Black and Ivory/Pewter out of stock. I've had good luck ordering from them.

blakmambo, I might be wrong, but the price differences you're encountering may be that BanjoBoy is referring to the Dynojet Power Commander Fuel Controller, (PCFC). The PCFC is a more basic version of the PCV. I would agree with RossKean, check all above stuff first. Check Vin# for completed...

Yes BigOgre, the black and chrome/silver are in the store section of Fobo site. Also a note: the 11.3mm is the size for the FJR and most Japanese bikes. I would definitely go with a T-stem setup, much easier pressure adjustment.

~G, Looks like you guys got Mike out of a bad spot. Thank goodness for tires in the weeds. Nice Job! Karl

This is true after you set the linkage connecting the throttle plates. My interpretation of the Unauthorized TBS is setting the throttle plates so they draw equal amount of air past the throttle stops. The initial setting with the throttle lock device holding rpm and bleed screws closed is to...

The 2nd gear fixing is what concerned me. If they split the case there might be debris or pieces of gear that didn't get flushed out that made it's way through the oil system. And or they bungled the cam install after shim adjustment. If more than one tooth off, could have valve contact. And or...

I wouldn't use your damaged engine. If it scored the cams and head who knows what else was damaged. JMHO. +1 on looking for good low mileage complete engine. I wouldn't take it within 10 miles of that shop you took it to either. They ruined your present engine, don't want them ruining the...

PJ4863, Is the imprecise feeling a "wandering" or a kind of "hunting" at speed?

Boston, You're Welcome, but thanks should go to Fred W and dcarver, they made it happen.

Boston, This Link is a fantastic tutorial on Gen 1 TBS. Good Luck!

PJ4863, I sense you're getting a little frustrated with this head bearing job and I can understand because the result of your efforts is not adding up and coming up short. I would suggest taking a deep breath and take a step back. It always helps me anyway. Keep in mind we are only trying to...

FJR1300T©/FJR1300AT© Owners Manual It's what I have for my 2005 Gen 1. I think it is for 04 and 05 Gen 1's.

A leaking V/C gasket won't cause a vacuum leak, but if the oil leak runs the engine out of oil that will affect the idle.

Super Commuter I like the gas tank area storage, side and tail bags can be had. Would make a great first bike, second bike for shorter/city/commute. I would rather have a dual-sport for a second bike. Would work for an only bike if you weren't concerned about performance.

I don't understand what you mean by loose. Do you mean traction loose or something is going to come flying off loose? If it happened after you worked on the steering head bearings, I would retrace the assembly of that. Re torque wheel and forks according to the FSM etc.Check the front wheel...
