Mission accomplished. Piece of cake... skinny 4" shank screwdriver works perfectly. 12" forceps great for pulling rubber covers off. Sure appreciate all the feedback and schematics... all very helpful! Thanks.

I do not have service manual for Gen. 3. (Have one Gen. 2). Throttle bodies have changed for Gen. 3 and I don't want to cause a problem. Can anyone give me information on how to set these up? I have the gauges and always adjusted my Gen. 2 previously.

I would like to install handlebar risers. I do not want to disconnect hydraulic lines but would like a riser or setback. I would like to know the limitations of a riser and/or a riser setback for my 2013 FJR?

I think the CB is built into the relay. It is self-resetting. I ordered after market LED bulbs that do not draw more than 8 watts... I think 2.5 watts... so this should work. Thanks for your input.

Thanks for this tip. I will try and find a compatible LED... maybe 250 milliwatt bulb.

There is a breaker system in the 2013 FJR. Givi does sell a turn signal product. I have had the Givi bracket and side saddle bags on 5 previous bikes with no problems. The Givi hard bags on the Givi bracket results in the FJR turn sign not being seen from the sides. The Givi turn signal...

I am trying to add in external signal lights... not brake lights. I have 1073 bulbs in the auxiliary external signal light. I am familiar with 1157 as brake tail light double element. I am not trying to do brakes. Incidentally I tried an 1156 light (as a possible alternative) in external...

I have an after-market hard luggage Givi rack with auxiliary signal lights. I had this set up on 2005, 2007 and 2010 FJRs and was able to connect directly onto existing signal light wiring. On the 2013 FJR upon connecting the auxiliary signal lights I get one flash and the relay/breaker switch...

Think I'm going to tear it down to windshield mechanism and see if this is an issue.

Volt meter showing 12.8. Nothing on the start button now. Ignition switch... could this be the issue?

Clock & odometer working. American bike. New developments... windshield tries to go up and down... think battery is getting low. When try to put windshield up when turn ignition off a hum comes from the windshield mechanism and in order to stop the hum with the ignition off I have to...

High beam switch on. With engine running neither high nor low beam. I have a volt meter.

Happened suddenly. Just completed long trip of approx. 10,000 km with no trouble. Moved the bike from driveway into workshop and discovered this problem... no headlight, windshield or horn. Had done a day trip last Sunday with no problem.

FJR2010 no mods done recently.

No headlight when ignition is on and fired up. However, high beam indicator is "on" when ignition is on. But no headlight is on. I have rear lights, signal lights and 4-way flashers front and back. Windshield only functions with ignition turned on. But when bike fired up windshield does not...

Further developments since my last posting are as follows: The knurling of the original axle had taken out the play in the rear but the bike did not feel perfect so, after discussion with the second Yamaha dealer who looked at the paper trail on record with Yamaha, it was decided to replace the...

Appreciate all the feedback. I have a factory manual for the 2010 FJR. All spacers and bearings are in proper order. I increased the size of the axle by center punching in rows on the axle at the wheel bearing races which increased the size and took the slop out in those areas. What is going...

Thanks for further feedback. I have gone over rear swing arm shaft. Had slight movement so I increased the size at bearing races eliminating the play. Equivalent to knurled at bearing races. Seldom ride in rain! Micrometer good idea but when I put axle through the wheel and can move it up and...

Appreciate all the feedback. Bike has never been wrecked! Not missing washer - have all the parts. Running almost new BT-023 rear and almost new Metzler on front. Have had wheels balanced with and without tires. No top case. Side play = rocking motion pulling and pushing top to bottom of...
