17a Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Went for a rip to Bark Lake. 1000 km's on the bike now, so when I got home I changed the Oil / Filter. On Wednesday I am having my handlebars done (recall work) and my soft saddlebags and frame sliders installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member betoney Posted May 16, 2017 Supporting Member Share Posted May 16, 2017 Thanks Nick (@stoltecmoto ) for your help! Springs are spot on... and with the new oil/level, my suspension finally works. Nothin' better than properly set up suspension!!! ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member fanowater Posted May 16, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted May 16, 2017 Not only did I mark up the parts to be replaced, but I washed the bike and then took detailed photos and videos of my tank. They scratch my beautiful red paint job on the tank and I swear by Grabthar's Hammer, there will be hell to pay.Such a great movie to quote.

BBB Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Thanks Nick (@stoltecmoto ) for your help! Springs are spot on... and with the new oil/level, my suspension finally works. Good news! Have you written a summary of what the final parameters were anywhere and perhaps a "how to" now that you've worked it all out for others to follow? it would be great if you haven't already.

thetruck454 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Added eBay fender eliminator with ebay LED plate frame. It was only $31 and very well built. I had to slightly enlarge the holes in the tail for it to fit, but not a problem. I didn't like how the narrow LEDs from the fender eliminator didn't light the whole plate so that's why I bought the separate LED plate frame http://m.ebay.com/itm/FJ-09-FJ09-Yamaha-Fender-eliminator-Tail-Tidy-2015-2016-2017-BLACK-NTS-P-L-/271899011302?txnId=1816530605017 http://m.ebay.com/itm/Custom-Horizontal-LED-Light-Motorcycle-License-Plate-Frame-Black-Mount-Holder-/282273092054?txnId=1678981108018 Proton 500 flush mounts...BRIGHT!!!! http://www.hightechspeed.com/products/Proton500/yamaha.html Blaster x tail light with their relay https://www.customled.com/products/2015-2016-2017-yamaha-fj-09-integrated-led-tail-light And one big booty curtousy of the shad sh58x. http://www.twistedthrottle.com/shad-sh58x-expandable-top-case-58-liters-carbon-look?gclid=Cj0KEQjw0v_IBRCEzKHK0KiCrKMBEiQA3--1NkiZOYHZS7suu06amym6xzw4tyWtPAsApDEEH_Hyfw4aAt9E8P8HAQ '15 FJ-09 with an aftermarket parts addiction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporting Member texscottyd Posted May 21, 2017 Supporting Member Share Posted May 21, 2017 @joeszup - I have the PR4s on my FJ, and really like the way they work on this bike. If this is your first set of replacement tires for the OEM 222s, I think you'll be pleased with the upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got just over 5K on the OEMs, but I didn't like how they felt. Here they are, along with the new axle bar spacers I got on e-bay and a fresh wash for the 90+F weather weather we are going to have this week.
