[QUOTE="stioc, post: 916002, member: 28263"] wow, thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated. The bike was well cared for and is completely stock. Doing some searches I found a couple of threads pointing to corrosion on the ECU connector that could cause the weird throttle issues. I looked up the Barbarian mod, sounds interesting- and until reading it I didn't know about the DIAG function either which will come in handy in the future too. As for the vibration, the RPMs don't go up, it's almost like the engine is starving of fuel or iginition or something where it's trying to speed up but can't carry the load. If I do it gradually it goes. Maybe if I find an FJR owner near me I can let them ride mine and see if it's normal or just my imagination coming from a twin engine with a good smooth acceleration. I'll check into the Michelin Pilot Road 2/3 and the maintenance items. Any particular online Yamaha stores you guys suggest that offer reasonable prices on the OEM parts? [/QUOTE]
