Air Management System

[brazos parker]

If anyone gets any info on the "air management system" on the 06 FJR (per Yami's website), pls post it up on this forum. I continue to believe that better air flow around/thru the engine compartment is the solution to the "left leg heat" problem...rather than additional insulation. But, that's just my "non-engineer" opinion.

Thanx.

Well, different plastic, different radiator, fans, fuel tank, fuel tank side covers, seat, just to name a few. Got a Visa card?

I just don't understand it. Why would Yamaha spend money on R & D and manufacturing to develop better heat dissipation and disbursement? They claim that it is in response to customer feedback and improving customer satisfaction in the FJR. But ............. I have heard it said here many times that "there is no heat problem". Hmmmm, I guess someone may have been wrong.

@Radman,

Well, I do have a Visa card but since I'm a "retard" person (that's East Tennesse talk for a person no longer in the work force), I was looking for some ideas I could apply to my 05 that I can purchase at Home Depot for something less than Fort Knox.

FYI, I don't find the heat to be overwhelming, only a slight annoyance, but am looking for a quick, cheap fix...something akin to Ramblin Man's vacuum cleaner hose jammer thingy.
