[QUOTE="ahchiu, post: 911252, member: 15706"] – the model year of your FJR - 2006 B – the number of miles on your FJR when the cam chain noise became apparent - N/A C – what action did you take, i.e., replace the CCT yourself, have the dealer do the work, ignore the noise, etc., and at what mileage - replaced myself at 34K D – did replacing the CCT eliminate the problem, i.e., the chain noise - YES, very slight noise, did it as preventitive maintenance, I really noticed how much quieter it was after I replaced it E – was the problem diagnosed by a dealer and if so, dealer name and specifics - See D above. F – were there any problems related to the CCT failure, i.e., cylinder head damage/engine replacement - N/A G – if the repair/replacement was performed by a dealer, how many days - N/A H – paid for by Yamaha or not/under conventional warranty or Y.E.S - Out of pocket expense $80 in parts. I – have you replaced your CCT more than once, including how many times, mileage at replacements - No J – did the chain noise begin randomly, or did it begin following valve adjustment, where the CCT needed to be de-tensioned to facilitate cam removal - slight noise - just preventitive maintenance when I checked my valves K - if you are needing to change your CCT are you confident Yamaha's redesign is sufficient or are you considering replacement with a manual aftermarket design - Confident Yamaha's redesign is sufficient.
