Hmm, well…
When you look closely, doesn’t it kind of look like an SR with clip-on handlebars?
Removing the tank on an FI bike is surprisingly difficult.
The connector tabs are really annoying to work with…
*I’m not experienced at this.
The engine guard installation issue from the other day (rear brake switch and return spring)
We solved it with a simple method—a collaboration of hose clamp and steel plate.
Spot welding and TIG horizontal pass for a solid, rock-solid result.
The color might show through… so I gave it a coat of gun coating.
Gun coating is really versatile—why not pick one up yourself?
It seemed simple, but…
I had to think about the spring tension too, so I was a bit troubled.
The customer wanted a plug change, but it looks like you have to remove the cover every time.
That’s so typical of stylish Yamaha.
The plug looks nice and crisp, like you’d expect from an FI bike. The body is starting to show some corrosion though.
How do you even remove it? Once you do it once it’s easy, but…
I was a bit puzzled.
There are three connection points,
and there’s a hose in the upper right of the image that leaks when you pull it out.
Since we’re replacing the tank anyway, we’re draining the gas regardless…
What do you think?
The mileage and age are still young, so the condition is in good shape.
Going back a bit, we replaced the rear brake switch with a hydraulic one and cleared the issue.
That’s how it is.
It’s so clean that I was careful with the masking—and we’re done!
