I bought this item new back in May 2021 from Amazon. I paid $140 for it. It is now retailing for $130 on Amazon. I was imagining that I would one day use it to synchronize the throttle bodies on the 2016 FJR A that I purchased earlier that month. Needless to say I never attempted that task...

Good suggestion. The gloves are size L with one pair of XL. The helmet is XL.

I rode a FJR all over the place for nearly 20 years but I am now out of the long distance riding game, so I have some gear to sell for cheap. This is a really good way to get some very nice quality, reliable and useful LD riding gear for next to nothing. As to the condition of the gear l will...

I replied to your other post. PM me with your phone number or email so I can send you additional photographs please. Thanks.

It is indeed.

2016 FJR 1300A. 24,064 miles. New battery. 1” bar risers. GIVI tank lock ring and GIVI locking tank bag. Yamaha touring screen. Mostly bone stock. This bike is in excellent condition. I'd ride it cross country tomorrow if I still did that. Selling because I just don't ride the beast enough...

Makes sense to me. Thank you.

My pre owned 2016 FJR came with bar risers installed by the previous owner. The cover plates for the bars were fastened not with the small 2.5 mm OEM hex head bolts but with silicone adhesive. I got them off using Goo Gone to loosen the adhesive only to find out that the OEM adjustment bolt and...

I was using a small JIS Philips head screw driver. It worked on one side but not the other, until I tapped the stem threads and widened the knob opening on the recalcitrant left side. I'm not sure of the root cause of the issue. I'll probably never know. Next time if there is a next time...

This was my first time ever removing them as well.

I have no idea if the knobs had been off before I bought the 2016 bike in 2021 but I seriously doubt it.

Good point. Thanks.

Success! I re-tapped the threads in the adjustment stem eliminating any latent cross threading. 3 mm, .50 thread pitch tap. I verified the thread pitch in the screw. I verified that the screw threaded into the tapped adjustment stem hole without the knob. I put the knob on thinking I was home...

Thanks. In my case the knob has a semicircle shaft and is molded on the inside to fit just one way. The screw goes in but won't catch the threads on the adjustment post. On just one side.

I will look for some more gumption.

Dumb question. Does the thread pitch matter here? Or will any hex head M3 x 8mm screw work?

Good advice. Robert Pirsig I'm not.

I'll probably keep trying but I feel I've tried every orientation. Obviously I'm doing something wrong. Just can't figure it out. The angle of attack is difficult. Had no issue with right side knob or screw.

Using JIS with correct head. I've tried every angle imaginable. What size hex head would I need? It is desirable to remove these knobs in order to remove/loosen the upper dash panel to eliminate the interference in battery replacement. Any advice is welcome.... I'm at a loss. Thanks for...

For the life of me I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I managed to reattach the right side but the left side screw will not grab the thread in the adjustment post through the knob. It grabs the thread without the knob. Nothing acts like it's stripped. I'm stumped. This is the last step of a...
