[ericboutin]

Hey Griff - I read the suggestions about new gaskets too. Here is what I'm finding.....is this correct from your experience? (Hopefully these links will work...)

Thanks!

Those are the parts, but you might try Parts Shark. I think their prices may be better, or maybe some one else from the FJR collective can chime in.

For parts, take a look at Cycle Parts Warehouse, Stadium Yamaha and Yamaha PartsHouse too. For chasing parts, a good method I've found is to search the part number via your favorite search engine. For example, type in Yamaha 5JW-12213-00-00.

Wish I could join y'all griff, sounds like a fun time!

No special tools. For the CCT probably bring a new CCT gasket and the side cover gasket where we zip tie the cam chain.

If you are just changing the CCT why do you need to take the side cover off? Disengaging the CCT doesn't slack the chain enough to drop off the crank sprocket.

Cuz it ain't no big deal...and you have that extra assurance.

Go back to your outage northerner....

Sheesh.

So the Canadians toss a bookcase that my face tried to catch and now I'm not invited.

That hurts, boys.

That hurts.

Actually Mark, judging by the location of the Mason-Dixon line...Bob has been a southern gentleman a lot longer than you.

Well sure Joe...ain't nobody able to make me a gentleman.

You sure? Others that have done this zip tie, I'm just following best practice

Yes I am sure, provided you don't attempt to rotate the crank. The chain will remain taught between the exhaust cam sprocket and the crank sprocket as long as you DO NOT ROTATE THE CRANK. I said it twice, because it is IMPORTANT.

So, Mark must need tires put on. Or an oil change. or spark plugs. Or maybe a TBS. Or probably all of the above....

Griff, I would like to attend and learn how to do brake and clutch fluid change from Wheaton. We have several FJR riders in Anderson. As I recall I rode with you and Petey in AR several years back, of course I had trouble keeping up with you two.

 

[ericboutin]

Part Shark wins! Parts ordered and on the way!

Glad to have you. Correction - I don't keep up with Petey.

There's something wrong with this sentence.



I'll be there, but I doubt you'll learn anything from me...except as a negative example maybe.

Hey, it's hell moving to a new place and have your wrencher move within a half hours ride away.

Hey Mark, don't sell yourself short! You could show him how to plug a tire!

Order speed bleeders now. Unless you already have them, of course.

In. I sent you an email griff.
