Just swapped springs and oil for my 2015 which only has the adjusters on the RH fork. Neither the Yamaha service manual or the Haynes manual mentioned the rebound "calibration" # of clicks, so imagine my confusion when it only spun without clicking near fully closed. Luckily you answered my question at 4:00, now I just have to disassemble and adjust ;) Thank you!
question for you man, i’m doing the same on my ‘14. were your stock spacers different width between left and right forks before putting in the new springs and spacers?
@@karlkrueger9941 My kit used the original spacers. The right hand fork has all the adjusters, so there's a completely different spacer on the RH fork than the left. It's locked onto the top of the cartridge to allow the preload adjuster to work. Did you buy a kit that requires swapping out the spacers?
@@Jan_Nicolaisenyes, i bought the traxxion dynamics kit, it replaces just the right side (with adjusters) spacer and washers, and replaces the left side spacer but not washers. I’m assuming in stock form the spacers are completely different. i.e the right was much thinner and the damper rod slid through it, and the left had a much wider spacer and washers but no damper rod? does that sound right to what your bike had?
By far the best fork service video on RUclips ... informative/well presented/well filmed ...top guy👍

Hello, I did everything as your video, exactly, but now I have a noise on one, like the spring rubbing the inner fork on the upper part. Disambled everything and still is...
Thank you Very much for the videos! Very Professional and step by step instructions. Just like if you were training me as a new employee. I just had to replace my FJR rear shock with a top of the line Ohlins, and noticed one of my fork seals leaking. 40k on the bike so doing good. You just saved my Bacon because I can now afford to do the job myself. Can you give me the dimensions of your nylon driver/installer? Thank you again.
Hi I was wondering if you can help me I have the 2006 model ,I have order after market hyperpro springs but they are longer ,and in some fjr forums says I have to omit the top 15cm metal spacer tube Any idea if this is correct ? Have you ever fit hyperpro on fjr ? Thanks
There is an o-ring in there that needs to be replaced, but you cant get it from Yamaha without buying the cap. You can remove it and match it at a local shop that sell o-rings, or measure it and order them from a supplier.
Air gap is a tuning variable that can be tuned to a specific rider's needs. We have found that the air gap that works well for most riders on the FJR is between 120 and 150mm.

Hi oil gap should be 104 or 100mm?
Thanks

@@Computrackboston Many Thanks for that ,I was asking because at all fjr forums they say 100mm . Regards from Greece
