![]() The design changes included significant trailing arm changes, revised final drive ratio, a curved radiator exhibiting a larger surface area, instrumentation changes, an upgraded alternator and significant attention to airflow changes to deal with reported heat issues in previous years. and rest of the world model years synchronized with the introduction of what has become known as the 'Gen-II' version of the machine. The 2005, North American model year remained structurally unchanged with a non-ABS and ABS model. Other refinements included an upgrade to the suspension rates, 320 mm front brake discs (was 298 mm), and a fairing pocket for small items. The 2004 North American models included both a non-ABS version with traditional blue anodized brake calipers and a new ABS version with silver calipers. The 2003 model garnered several awards in the sport touring category from various magazines. The FJR1300 was introduced to Europe in 2001, before arriving in North America in 2002, with the 2003 model year designation, and offered in a non-ABS version only. The clutch and transmissions of the AE/AS models are identical to that of the standard FJR model. The AE/AS model has an electronically controlled clutch and gear shifting system called YCC-S. Both models have a 1,298 cc inline-four engine. The Yamaha FJR1300A and FJR1300AE/AS are sport touring motorcycles made by Yamaha Motor Company. This has been the guage's behavior always.1,298 cc (79.2 cu in) transverse inline-4, liquid-cooled, DOHC, At sustained speed, the guage usually stays in the middle position (or one or two bars below middle if it's VERY cold out). If there sustained, the fans will eventually come on and cause the guage to drop back down a bar or two. the temp gauge will work its way up to 2 bars above middle. When the weather is hot.or when idling for long periods in weather that's warmer than cool. It had 53,000 miles when I bought it ten years ago. Once the bike starts moving the temperature seems to drop rapidly. ![]() Sitting at lights the temp climes to the 3/4 mark. I am in AZ and on hot days the temp gets right up to halfway mark. Reinforcement kit for the bags service Bulletin "no info"Īlso, a question on temperature. Just acquired this FJR and want to make sure I am safe to drive A bit of a disclaimer on why my original post was edited. Once again my apologies for the edits, I called the Local Yamaha dealer who was wrong and gave me bad intel, when he said the recalls were not done. ![]() ![]() I recommend when calling 8 hit extension # 17610 which is Greg's direct line. The Yamaha Rep who assisted me was super knowable and a true professional Wire Sub lead replaced 2021-I do believe the last two were affecting how the transmission was shifting.ĮCU/Altitude sensor not replaced, Yamaha rep suggested I go to the local dealer and request an "out of warranty Service Claim" part # 908913005400 part is available He knew everything about the FJR and gave me info which then caused me to go back and edit my post. Through this site, I found Yamaha's 800# WOW! I should have called before I started this thread, I was shocked and totally stoked with Greg the Yamaha rep. Don't usually bother with a set of wrenches other than sometimes an adjustable. I always carry tire repair stuff and compressor if on a trip, spare fuses and a set of Allen keys. Cell phone and credit card are the most useful tools IMO. Depends on how far you are away from home and what you are comfortable doing at the side of the road. Not much useful in the tool kit - the only thing I use is the spark plug socket when changing plugs. New design has a blue or green dot on the side of the mounting flange.ģ/4 temperature sitting at idle on a hot day isn't an issue. If the valve clearance check hasn't been done, it is due and makes sense to replace the CCT at the same time. There were a few grenaded engines due to CCT failure. Partway through the 2007 model year, Yamaha went to an improved design although there was never a recall. Good idea to replace the cam chain tensioner if original. Better still, get an ebay replacement ECU from 2009-2012 - I think it should work and is likely to improve the "snatchy" throttle (at low openings) which is a problem with early Gen II. If you do a lot of riding in the mountains, you might want to get it done. A "goodwill" recall and I'm not sure if Yamaha is still doing it. There was a replacement for the ECU where it did not properly handle big changes in elevation. Ignition switch needs replacement - should be done (there were failures) You mention the harness in #7 and I am not aware of anything else for ignition ground. There was an additional harness for a ground "spider", not ignition. Reinforcement kit was for the top box, not the side bagsĮCU Throttle body? No idea and I had a 2007.
