[QUOTE="Bub, post: 1443813, member: 97827"] Hi everyone, new owner here. My first FJR, 2009 gen 2, NA version, 60,000 kms. Not my only bike, (4 others) bought for 2 up as my new lady wanted to ride. Rode a pals gen 1 and I was hooked. I did the barbarian fix to allow CO access, it worked but I found all cylinders at 0 which surprised me. In a roll on with the gen1 I got soundly smoked, any suggestions here? Also, when I attempted to check TB sync with vac gauge, I found #4 (right end?) screw bottomed, no adjustment left. They're pretty close in sync so not a big issue, but still ... I need to check valve lash (no history) but plug boot on 4 was so stuck I tore it trying to remove. I found a replacement but I'm terrified of the others now. Yamaha wants $125 each, yikes! Any suggestions here are most welcome. I'm not new at this wrenching stuff, millwright and machinist for 40yrs, just saying to eliminate the lack of experience scenario. Sweet bike, thanks for reading guys. [/QUOTE]
