Hello all, I began tearing into my Gen 2 for its overdue valve clearance job and I wanted to share my findings with the group. Overall this job requires a lot of patience, garage space and a wide variety of tools. I called around to my local yamaha shops and they charged in the ballpark of...

Been running Motul 300V since the day I got my bike. Put 32k miles on it and havent had any issues with slipping. Mine is tuned with Double D mod. I trust seans wisdom here but im speaking from my own personal experiences.

I have the Akra mid pipe and dam slip ons. I actually want to switch to the dam mid pipe. If anyone wants to straight up trade, let me know.

I took the radiator off to get to it. There is a rubber oring that holds it in.

I would love an additional 10-15% power and remain streetable if thats even possible. This might be a more approachable/affordable option for those of us who might be put off by investing 30,000$ at a 18,000$ bike.

That was actually less than I expected. Is there any way to offer it in stages. I.e. better flowing heads, valves, cams, throttle body, velocity stacks, tuning as a stage 1/2?

Man im pretty pumped. I think if the price is right id consider going in on this!

Hell yea! Thats awesome!

Issue resolved! I had screws loose in the bottom of the battery box. They loosened over time, one on each side of the bike and this caused buzzing throughout the bike!

Replacing the sensor fixed the issue!

I placed an order and they couldn't determine a shipping date. So I canceled that order and had someone custom fab me an aluminim cowl instead.

Im not sure on that. I will reply when I find out.

So I know what the dbw sounds like and its not that. My sound/vibration begins at 2500 rpm and scales with rpms. When wearing a helmet it helps me isolate that noise better from the wind and I can physically tell its between the two side scoops especially when I pinch my knees together on them...

That looks like the wiring/harness for the sensor but what about the sensor itself. Shouldnt that be located near the bottom of the crankcase close to the crankshaft itself? I suspect that that would be more likely. My suspicion is that water build up or accumulation occured at the sensor...

Thats what I thought too. Maybe just a noisy fuel pump.

When replacing the spark plugs at the last service interval I tore the boot/rubber of the ignition coil a little bit. Bike ran fine for a few thousand miles. Just recently my bike developed a buzzing noise when putting my knees against the air scoops and im trying to discern what it could be.

All, I tested the resistance of the secondary coils (two pins on top of coil plug) and had consistent resistance measurements on 3/4 cylinders. They all came out to about 1.6 ohms. 1 of the cylinders however came out to 1.8-1.9 ohms. I am going to replace as its out of spec but want to hear...

Yes sir. Took awhile to get here but was worth the wait.

Just call tim and tell him watcha got. Hes awesome.

If you were on the fence this is your sign. Get them.
