gabefzr6 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Has anyone here removed the stock cartridges? I have some replacements on order and am wondering if the cartridges can be removed without special tools. Is it possible to remove the bolt without Yamaha's cartridge holding tool? 2008 Street Triple G 2015 FJ-09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some replacements on order and am wondering if the cartridges can be removed without special tools. Is it possible to remove the bolt without Yamaha's cartridge holding tool?Yes, but it is hard. You will still need to make some tools, so just buy the $20 part IMO. Check my how to on what I initially used. A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.

pattonme Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 just turn the fork upside down (cap on, springs inside), drop your weight on it and hit it with an impact. Comes right off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
