Seat removal


Recommended Posts

Welcome to the forum Graham. If it’s anything like the earlier models, there’s a keyhole on the left side panel, which is used to remove the pillion seat. You’ll then see a rubber cover which hides a latch for removing the riders seat.

Hi Thank you for your reply there is a keyhole but this is under the seat towards the left side I have turned the key but still no joy why Yamaha don't supply owners manuals with these bikes is ridiculous.

Hi guys I just got my 2015 FJ09 and loving it so much. I do need to adjust the back suspension (too soft) before a two day ride this weekend. Any advice ? 

Besides spring preload for setting rider sag, the only setting you can change is rebound damping.  There is no compression adjustability on the rear shock.

Clicknow, I could not figure it out from the manual and found s YouTube video.

Easy when you know how. !

My black bung is now stored away -- refit and removal toooo much of a faff about.

I think the seats are possibly the worst I have ever had for remove and refit fiddling.
