2015 FJ 09 Traction Control
Windster replied to Jmhelms's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 General Discussions
For ECU to sence a wheelie there is no need any more than abs sensors, if front is poping up it means rear wheel turns faster than front, so TC kicks in and cuts power, simple. Other is wheelie control, it needs much more sensors. -

Two TC modes are only from '17 model. To do wheely hold TC button for few seconds, it will turn off TC, until you restart engine. -
'Galloping' idle and stalling when restarting from hot
Windster replied to dazzler24's topic in FJ-09 Tech Questions
I have exactly same problem on my 16' Tracer. I think it could be many thinks. In a month or so I will be doing some tweeks with the bike ( new brakes 320mm and lines, Ape cam chain tensioner, new clucth basket dampers) and I will try to sort this problem. Wil start with: TB cleaning and synching. Check for vacuum leak. Check AIS system Check for gas tank ventilation. Check fuel pressure especially at starts. Will additionly check spark plugs and valve clearances as I recenty had a problem with chain tensioner at low rpms. -
Yeas, it is still like I did it . This year had about 5k km. trip and another 2k km. in short trips . No issues with this mod.

usually in cars temperature sensor is mounter in such place, so numbers wont vary mucth, but in some car models (older Alfa Romeo for eg.) it is mounted in sucth place, that numbers at gauge is going up and down a lot.Same is in motorcycles.Also Yamaha 3CP engineis normally running at about 70 deg.cel.annd goes up only when hot or going very slow speed.It is normal.

Had the same problem during my last year trip in Alps. Managed to make holes under these plastic pads. Then lifted up fallen plastic to place and srewed in some M6 bolts through these holes. Done about 4000 km's after that mod. No problems.

What did you do to your FJ-tracer-gt today?
Windster replied to yamaham's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 General Discussions
I have installed same QS few years ago. I was riding with thin sports boots and it was perfect, until I chanded to more bulky boots. Had to do adjustmets . Now still sometimes getting false neutral, especialy from 5 to 6 gears. I have removed one of the washers, because it was not sensitive enaugh. My settings: Cut-off times now is at auto, before it was different. -
All motorcycle front street tires has different tread direction from back tire, mainly for better braking performance. Read this to understant more > http://sgbikerboy.com/2016/12/26/why-do-motorcycle-front-and-rear-tires-have-opposite-tread-patterns/

My tracer had Pirelli Angel ST in front when I bought it, and it was horrible at hard braking, but looked almost as new. ABS was kicking in every time I brake harder on tarmac, changed it to Michelin road 5 as soon as I could. I have used before many different models of Michelins, Metzelers and Dunlops and loved it. With bridgestone I had problems with front cupping. Last few tires was only michelin road. Currently back tire is road 5 and front will be changed to road 6 in a moth after this year season will start.

Quick shift opinions?
Windster replied to Great Gonzo's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 General Discussions
Yeah, but for downshifts, you need to blip throttle, and as it dosn't have an auto blipper, you will have to do it manually. And there is a question would a QSE let you blip throttle if it would cut of ignition on downshift. I acctualy bought a Healtech iQSE for my 16' Tracer, but did not installed it yet. But I do not expect to use it for donwshift. -
I have done the same test, with the same gauge 😉 . One disc is almost perfect, and other disc is on the limit to spec shown in service manual. Also done that test to wheel rim itself, found little bit bent in one place, but no vibration's wihle riding. On my wheel rim those unpainted surfaces is in the same hight level with wheel rim side surface or if you look at mid between unpainted surfaces, where disk rim side plate has some left edge's ( from mashining I guess ) it is even at higher level than unpainted surfaces. Maybe it was bent somehow, and then mashined and repainted. Could not know that now , but fact is , brake discs is way to close to wheel rim center, and looks like sometimes even touching inner side of calipers . Other way is to leave those washers which I have instaled, and hope there won't be any problem on agressive braking. So far I have done about 2000 km. with washers installed, had no problem. But safety first, so dont want to leave like that.
