I want to apologize. You and some of the others here are getting your info from places like Urban Dictionary and I finally put 2 and 2 together. It’s not that you don’t understand that the Yamaha parts are fine, it’s just that you are uninformed and don’t know any better. You believe anything you read.....a few say it’s bad so the part is bad, again it’s just you don’t know any better. I’m sorry the system failed you, maybe one day you will figure it out but it’s pretty clear you can’t.....sorry.

Yet you keep replying so it must mean that you like me a lot. Although I’m very flattered I’m not that kind of guy, sorry if that hurts your feelings. Possibly a google search can help you out in your future endeavors, good luck and I hope you find what you’re looking for.

You make the point better than I ever could. Assuming owners are skilled mechanics is a bigger mistake than assuming they aren’t, most don’t know which way is tight and which is loose.

I would almost bet I have the lowest IQ on this forum and I’m definitely the biggest d bag on here. Now who can argue with that? Reverend!

This guy gets it. 😁

You just did again, it works or EVERYONE would be replacing it. Pretty sure that’s not the case and it’s FJ09 Tracer not FZ07. Are you saying they have the exact same parts and if so you know this because you work for Yamaha? If that’s the case then why have you not informed them of this terrible design flaw? Or perhaps it looks the same so that means it is the same? Hamburger

If that was his first time removing then yes but that just means someone else messed up. The block as you say works for it’s designed purpose, it’s not perfect but what is?

Why can’t people just admit they messed up instead of saying it’s an inferior design? Everyone makes mistakes and obviously this setup works for many who pay attention when they are torquing the nut. It’s not fool proof and nothing is.....the picture is worth a thousand words. He/she didn’t check that it was seated correctly before tightening, now you have a flaw caused only by Yamaha. It’s never the person doing the work

Scary thought knowing that you have all that wisdom but still failed at not destroying something that others don’t. Now I know I’m a better wrench than an F/A 18 mechanic and a printer technician, wait till I tell my mom. As soon as I finish these Chips and salsa and this video game she’s going to hear how great I am.

Condescending? Because I say some shouldn’t work on their own bikes? If you over torque or improperly place bolts, screws or nuts it’s not Yamahas fault when they fail, break or strip. Guess now saying everyone isn’t a mechanic means I’m an ass, a condescending ass to be exact

Some people shouldn’t work on things, l believe this is a great example of one of those people. I’ve never had an issue with mine and I’m sure most haven’t but to each their own. Probably the same bike has many stripped out bolts as well, being your own mechanic has rewards only if you have the ability.

Factory stuff works just as good or in this case much better.

I’m confused, you would buy it or you will not buy it, literally which one is it?

Never buy warranties, if the bike needs it then why buy the bike? Can an anomaly happen.....yes but........

I installed those pads on my bike and for about 50 miles they did the same with tightness and very noisy as well. Now all good, still a little noisy but nothing like when new, satisfied with the extra stopping power

Can’t you sync the 1 and 2 together them take hose 2 to 3 and sync to 1? Just axing

Sync your throttle bodies, it’s a 30 minute task, borrow a digi sync if you can

[removed political comment]

Probably takes longer to fill than make a quick stop for another, maybe most live in very remote areas where gas stations are 150 miles apart?

Sorry I hurt a lot of feelings on this form. It seems “men” are more sensitive now than they used to be, I will try to tread lightly and not hurt feelings in the future

Correct, emissions have caused all kinds of problems. Now cars, trucks and motorcycles make far more horsepower than ever before and they last longer......sorry but I think after that post you maybe should take the express lane. Tolerant? It’s called triggered and it’s fun to watch. Emissions are killing vehicles, next you are going to say ufo technology is why Elon Musk is so successful. Nothing else can explain it so why not?

My vote is metal capacity and I’m super angry because no one agrees with me. Wait, wasn’t that two insults from you? Glass houses????

You are correct and I apologize. We get better with age, weight gain and becoming slower. It’s proven, how many Olympic athletes are in their 40s now? Also it’s unheard of that the rider could be the problem with the bike, again you are correct......it’s always the bike. Insult? If what I said was taken as an insult then maybe someone needs a pamper change, sorry I upset your happy space.

Post it when you find it, and thanks for reading all of my post.....it means you care.

Then I assume you own the perfect bike and are completely 100% satisfied? I applaud you for accomplishing something that so many never find and never will. It could only mean that you will never sale the bike and no matter what change anything else about it, that’s a unicorn.
