I found this thanks to your post. I turned the key on, no fuel pump sound, high beam stuck on and entire fuel gauge flashing. I installed and electric jacket connection a few rides a go but that goes straight to the battery. Maybe the extra charging current some hows goes through this ground...

When you close off the throttles in deacceleration the intake manifold vacuum exceeds a certain value and the fuel injectors are turned off. I didn't messure it - it may be around 20". And you have noticed as I have, if you are still deaccelerating, when you crack open the throttle bodies...

I used the tech mount to the empty mirror hole on the clutch bracket. it gets it up high where you need to see it with out taking your eyes off the road. It doesn't hit the windshield up or down and it doesn't block the intruments.

First check with a cardiologist. Then a mechanic.

I remove the intake pressure sensor from the throttle body manifold, so its always open to ambient pressure (for the atmospheric measurement). Left the wires on the sensor. Sealed the manifold back up. Went for a 35 mile ride. Eliminated almost all of the throttle delay when engine is...

Do have a part # for the gas tank elevator? I need to order one of those.

Lots of bike catalogs have them. Here is a link for Chaparal. Lightworks bat ray led marker lights

True, on so many levels.

On the GEN II bike I keep forgeting to turn off the directionals. Oldtimers disease. Then a car will cut out in front of me and I'm ticked at myself for forgeting. Thought about all the other reminders, beepers, timers ~vibrators~. Got these light worxs led lights. All the catalogs said...

Yea, but there is always green condensation where ever I park.

Got home from a ride the other day and the bike had a bad smell to it. Looked around. Dog $hit on the front tire, fender and radiator! Cleaned it up. Very carefully picked out a lot of sand out of the radiator. Why didnt I just get the FendaExtenda! Too cheap or is just the looks of it...

I have a hearing problem and have had surgery to my ears. Any noise over a normal conversation can start to cause ringing in my ears so the motorcycle is a chalenge. I bought the "SuperVisor" to keep the sun out of my eyes when riding and found it cut out almost all the wind noise form my full...

Thanks, sounds like the power commaner worked for everyone who did it. Looks like my easiest way out.

I have an 07, when the engine is braking, decelerating and producing a high vacuum in the intake, there is a time delay when going back on throttle. Your off throttle, the engine is braking, you open the throttle back up and NOTHING, then your throttle is 1/4 open the vacuum goes down and the...

These straps were holding down the forks when the bike was shipped to me. I wrapped them around the seat frame. Seat is forward so there are two holes available. They stow under the seat. You can take them out to tie down a load or give a passenger something else to hold on to.

I scratched the tank with the snap from my jacket liner. Hence my latest farkle. Burgundy tank skin, $90 from Second Look. Fits good. Looks great. I recommend it.

If you look at the cam on the G2 throttle you will see the jump in height midway between the low rpm and high rpm throttle positions. This may be the jump your feeling in throttle response.

Yamaha just fixed my clutch and its working great, better than when it was new. I called the customer service line in Irvine, California and they said they didn’t know anything about the problem. I brought it to my dealer, he didn’t know either, but he called the service line and they said...

NHTSA Link for NHTSA Vehicle complaints Complaint Only Complaint for 07 FJR1300 Clutch problem

I put a lot of the symptoms together and have a theory. (which may be totaly false) Maybe the clutches were put in dry at the factory. They figured, hell it wil get oiled when they start it up. The clutch sits above the oil and maybe the oil spray over the top doesn't get all the plates. My...
