A – the model year of your FJR - 2006 B – the number of miles on your FJR when the cam chain noise became apparent - 28000 C – what action did you take, i.e., replace the CCT yourself, have the dealer do the work, ignore the noise, etc., and at what mileage - dealer agreed it was the CCT and...

Ok..job is done. Brought it in Tuesday and it was ready the next day. She purrs again! All is good however they only did the tensioner because Yamaha said so. I like this, as they did not have to open the case. The tensioner that came out looked great but she was all the way out. Did not...

Oh that is bad....get a new bike. :D

I checked with the SM. I am getting the revised one. When he pulled up the parts list the old number had been superceeded by the new one. So...the old one should no longer be available.

Is there a new one yet? If there is I missed the thread and the Part no! I also get a free oil change and the valve adjustment...will lean on him for a sync too. ;)

When mine failed I took it to Katy Yamaha (new Shop in West Houston/Katy), and after some encourangment from me Brandon (service manager) was able to change out the tumbler for me so I could keep my bike to 1 key. This was done under YES. So, when we all get around to this recall and you are...

The Inventor user seemed excited about analyzing the model, but really did not seem to excited about going down to the parking garage and measuring my bike, plus he had concerns about knowing the material properties and thickness of tubing. Yes he was aware of the part/assembly limitations...it...

We have Inventor 08 (possibly 09) with the ansysis FEA solver plug in. It is a little limited compared to the full anysis version. If you want I can check with the inventor user (not me) to see if he cn spare some time to analyze it. Loading will be the issue however, we would need to discuss...
