yea, we tried everything under the sun, including a new clutch actuator. I think if you catch it early that might work. They used to say the ones that didn't sell right away and sat in their crates dried out the clutch plates, etc. Mine didn't get bad until it had 25k miles on it. But like I...

I originally bought mine used from a guy with 7000 miles on it. He told me the same thing, they shudder when cold. All I can tell you is that since they finally got mine working right it works better than when I bought it. No shuddering when cold even, the computer knows just how to slip the...

my saga went on for 3 years, eventually I had to take my bike to a different Yamaha dealer, corporate Yamaha eventually took over control of the situation. My entire clutch was replaced, and the master cylinder assembly for the clutch as well. They think the master cylinder failed, thus not...

the part in the instructions in the manual where it says hold the lever for .3 seconds is a misprint, that should be 3 seconds, hope that helps.

does anyone know what the other spring there does? I unwound that first by accident and never rewound it..... does anyone know what the other spring there does? I unwound that first by accident and never rewound it.....

I can tell you the jerky starts are not caused by us not knowing how to ride our FJR AE's. Unless after 20K miles I am losing my technique. I have been taking my bike into the dealer on and off for a year and they still can't figure it out. Spent over $1700 on new clutch actuator, did not work...

Shane, I don't know if you are still reachable from this forum, but I am now living the FJR AE hell, I am coming up on a year since my SH 26 code came up, bike was in and out of shop here in Reno, Nv. all last fall and in November I spent over $1800 replacing the clutch actuator assembly etc., I...

Well, I got mine back a week ago Friday after having the clutch actuator replaced, that part contained the sensor that was giving off the error code. $1718.17 total for that job. So far the bike is working ok and no error codes.Was not thrilled about paying that much for a repair but really did...

well guys, glad you got yours worked out. If the clutch actuator repair does not do the job, I will suggest the clutch soak to the Yamaha dealer and see what he thinks. Like I said before, if this repair does not fix the error code problem, I will not have to pay for it....I will let you know...

My bike is currently in the shop and they are replacing the clutch actuator, approx $1800, went in Wednesday and was supposed to be worked on on Friday, have not heard from the dealer yet, service closed on sun/mon so I guess I will find out what is going on Tuesday. Auron, how many miles on...

Well, the Yamaha dealer has been really good about this actually, they probably have worked on the bike close to 30 hours including the Yamaha Rep coming up and working on it and I have only been charged for the original 3 hours of labor that the clutch bleed requires. As far as the new repair...

Well, not yet, they have been working on mine off and on since the beginning of August, they have done the whole bleed procedure (which requires removing the entire rear swingarm etc. check the service manual) more than once. They also brought up a regional Yamaha Tech expert to work on it as...

Well guys,here is my latest update on my SH 26 shift error. When I took my AE in the first time they did not do the clutch bleed properly, even though I suggested to the service writer that I had seen on here that you had to take the rear wheel off,etc. to do so. So I brought it back in a few...

I just got back from a trip to Canada and mine started doing this a few days before I made it home. I was getting the SH 26 error, called my dealer here and they are going to bleed the clutch and see if that works. They can't get me in until the 1st of August, so we shall see what happens...

I have an 06AE with no problems yet, sorry about yours, what I am looking for is detailed instructions for removing the actuator so as to get the air filter out without having to go to the dealer,it looks simple but I hate doing something without instructions as I am just an average...
