[QUOTE="kerlinger, post: 1352090, member: 89866"] This has been a great thread to follow and I'm looking forward to viewing some of these images when i have more time....I've spent the better part of 10+ years flogging several Jap 600cc road bikes on the racetrack, with many not seeing anything more than an oil/filter change a couple times a season. Max RPM, missed shifts, downshifting when meant to upshift, clutchless shifting...etc These engines can take massive abuse with minimal maintenance. I'm new to big inline 4's - FJR - for street riding and will follow the suggested Yamaha maintenance schedules. For me, I certainly didn't buy it to lug, I sometimes bounce off the rev limiter in the first two gears when i'm not quick enough to bang a gear and when i'm in the mountains its 2nd/3rd gear and screaming. Understanding I'll pay the piper when and if anything happens, but I highly doubt anything will. And this forum continues to confirm how well built these bikes are. thanks tntmo for this thread! good stuff here [/QUOTE]
