Checked the valve clearances early (29,000km)...
All exhaust valves were tight - just gotta wait for the shims to arrive... -

Indeed the MA006 - it was shorter that the MA009. The bar is about an in less width than the stock as well.
This might be a dumb question but are the MA006 ends threaded to accept the Yamaha hardware?

New flight deck complete. Did a lot of looking around at various risers and such. Really wanted to lower the bar to a more aggressive feel. Ended up settling a Rizoma bar that delivers everything I wanted. Lower and better sweep on the bars. No more chicken-wings while riding in a tuck. These just clear the tank dressing by about 1/4-1/2 inch. I can tell you riding it on my garage on the center stand going vroom vroom was really really comfortable - It's snowed yesterday.
Hey,
What's your take on the GPR damper?
Worth having? Does it help with high speed weave?

Nitron recommend between 30-40mm of fully kitted up rider sag, at the rear.
Thanks...
I put in a YSS shock a while back but wasn't sure what sag I should be using...
-
Nitron NTR 1. I ran out of time today, so wheel still off and then sag to set, but I’m looking forward to trying it out.
What sag settings do you guys use?

I just finished now myself - kinda chili her in NY. Install went really smooth. Test run around the neighborhood was so nice, i initially thought I maybe did something wrong. Clutch pull is butter as well as the shifting, like to this point you can't really notice you hit the next gear - in either direction. I was strangely amazed at what $230 and an hour of your time could do to your FJ. I have the Andreanis as well and have already dropped the congressperson side to 2.5. I'll probably get the upgrade from Matt over the winter as he seems to make the Andreani's sing.Did the same job today...
Not much to it really, opening the 30mm nut is the most difficult part...
Next job is to put 2.5 weight oil in the compression leg of the Andreanis...
I'm across the water so Matt isn't an option for me...
Hoping the lighter oil helps...

More like “What I’ll be doing tomorrow”.
I’m pretty sure I have all my ducks lined up for this.

Did your FJ09 have tight valves at 26.6 mile/42km Service?
