Brilliant video, my rear shock gave out on me after 88k kms, just had a long ride over rough roads with luggage loading the rear down, a few days after I came home I was riding on the spring and nothing else :P I'm about to mount a Wilbers rear shock this afternoon, so I figured I'd service the linkage at the same time, I very much appreciate the guidance.

Needed a refresher on this as now have a gen 2, that little reminder of how to knock the linkage arm off the frame was so handy! 😃

thank you for this guide, mine is a 2010, the abs light is always on. I did the same steps and the pump is working. I repeated it several times and the light is still on with no error codes displayed at all. It did not even blink after jumping the wires for the test mode its just solid light. do you have any Idea about this issue?

Brilliant video thanks very much for this I’ll have to look at mine now I have a 2008 model ,my dogbones are 8” centre to centre the guy I bought it from said it was lowered which it certainly was now what I would like to know is the stock lengthwise on the dogbones so I can get it back to Standard thanks in anticipation

Can't bike be jacked up instead of suspending her....

Thank you Simon! Very helpful indeed! Might use my son's squat rack where i can suspend the bike!

Mixing dissimilar grease Will cake up and be as bad as no grease

Hello Simon, it any reason why grease nipples cannot be fitted? Im thinking of fitting them to my recently purchased fjr1300

Fantastic video! Looking forward to servicing my suspension over the winter. Thanks for spreading the knowledge!

Good video ,i am thinking to do this job when i will replace the factory downpipes with Delkevic downpipes

Brilliant Simon, thank you for taking the time to show people how to do a really important job, appreciate your time and efforts.

My fjr 1300 2016 I don't know where to locate my obd2 port can u help me please

Mine only throbbing on front and code 33 , any thoughts

this particular operation and the excessive tire wear is what keeps me from a purchase of an FJ🙁

Hi Simon I need your help to fix abs of my fz1 2013 model, there is no light or code for abs failure but it doesn't work, when I connected to jumper and switch on than it starts to show multiple abs codes on meter and when turned off all lights n codes are gone but abs remain same :-(

@8:04 made every second watching worth it :D Very helpful video in many ways. Hope have a Gen II before long and this is encouraging

I simon, my bike is a fjr model 07 how can I delete the olds codes, do you know wich is 1, 2 ,3 ,4 codes en abs sistyem?

Great video!! Thanks for posting!!

@simon - the bolts on the middle stand, have you done this work before? Since it seems like the bolts are the correct way, and not pointing toward the exhaust?

Thanks for a very detailed video. Good to know that it is possible to remove the arm relay for maintenance without destroy the bolt, as seen in other videos.

Hi Simon How old is your FJR?

Great job, love your video, very informative, thank you

I thought the sidestand had to be down and the bike in gear to stop the bike starting while you press the Run button

great video .. if I want to change the dogbones.. do I need to suspend the bike or is there a way round that? 2016 FJR

Thanks for the great video! does this work on the Gen1 FJR's with ABS?

Thanks for video.. Nice n clear

I'm VERY curious about those needle-roller bearings in the linkages - you claim that the rollers will FALL OUT if the inner shaft is removed. I have done this job on other Japanese streetbikes of the era, and all have been CAPTURED rollers, (i.e., caged)... and never seen one yet where the rollers are flopping around in there loosely. Are you sure about that.. but personal experience? PS- when working (lying) on the floor, there's nothing like a nice 2' x 4' piece of thick cardboard to lie on.

Well Simon, That was cracking thank's so much for that video on such a tricky job. I dont have a FJR1300 atm but i looking for a large tourer for this year. Many thanks again, well deserved beer enjoy.

Thanks for the great training film, I have one question what about the top shock bolt? Does it get checked?

Very informative video...one question if anyone out there has the answer. What is the centre to centre length of the stock dog bones...my Fjr had been lowered with the adjustable ones when I purchased it. I would like to put them back to stock length...

Thank you very much for the information shared, it was very useful, I made a cleaning and change of brake fluid to my FJR leaving the ABS light perping, with your information I managed to solve the problem, a hug and greetings from Chile

Thanks a lot. Just thinking on rear shock absorber upgrade or swap from k1600gtl.

I've just bought (nov 2020) an 05 fjr1300 with with 15k miles on it full Yamaha history.il definitely check these linkage's... Great video can't believe it has so little comments... Well done done sir it's in my favourites

What about the swingarm?

haha! nice cameo by the grand daughter lol she demands a lot of attention lol

wow, what a job. And dealers dont' want to do this job either? ha! i know kawasaki, the older concourse, had grease fittings in that wishbone, made the job a cinch! but of course, yamaha was trying to get dealers more money by giving them this huge service, kind of backfired. I did mine (i have a 2016) and removed the swingarm from the bike, bought a lift from Abba over in england (i live in NJ United states) and that helped a great deal...only thing was i wasn't watching when i unloaded the bike and broke off a foot pedal in the process. That was the only issue i had with it.

Hello there! My abs diagnostic trouble code is 11 12 15 16 24 25 33 41 53 54. I don't have any information about these faults. Can you help me see what problems? Thank you!

I suspect the front most suspension bolt is in the wrong way round which is causing the problem of getting the suspension link out. I think it should be fitted from left to right.

Love my V11 - nice smooth riding by the way. Mine pulls like a train from 5k right to the red line and actually smooths out even more as the revs rise. I havent seen another on the road yet!!

Hi how on an RP08 Year 2003

Best Bike in the World.

Hello 😀

If you feel like redoing this, please use a hand-held so you can focus up really tight on the proper electrical junction (and not get blocked by the handlebar).

Thanks for posting this!

Good video, just made a patch lead out of two small spade connectors it worked a treat, First time I have felt the ABS activate on the FJR :)

greetings excellent video .. a question the base for cell phone that is in the video that marks is and where you can buy.

Great video (despite background child noises :-) ) Yamaha Part Number 90890-03149

Thank you very much Simon for uploading this video. My FJR is a Gen 1, 2005. I finally found the ABS test connector just aft of my battery. But to identify the dummy cover I needed to see it in your video. I used a wire that had alligator clips on each end to jump the lt blue and black wires. My issue was that I could not get a firm rear break pedal. I had to cycle the ABS unit. And it worked! FYI, the same steps you demonstrated, also work by pushing the rear break pedal. At least on my Gen 1. Thanks very much for you help, and the entertainment your granddaughter provided.

Hi Simon great video. Can you put a link to where you got the tool lead from. Thanks

your video helped me. Thanks for posting
