- How To Upgrade A Yamaha FJR1300 Clutch To 2016 Slipper With Easy Pull - This is a complete how-to vid showing you everything you need to convert your 2015 & prior Yamaha FJR1300 to the new 2016 slipper version. This also gives you a clutch pull roughly 1/2 that of the previous years for a MUCH easier time especially in stop and go traffic.
Total parts cost is just under $300 as of the time of this video. The graphic shows all the parts you will need to order circled in red, order from your supplier of choice.
The order of part assembly for the stack is as follows:
On the basket, the flat washer then the sloped washer - note the printing, it slopes down. Then a new thin friction plate, a new clutch plate then the retaining wire.
With the basket in the engine, 4 pairs of new thick friction plates and clutch plates. Then another new friction plate and 1 of the OLD clutch plates. Then a new thick friction plate, new clutch plate, finishing with a new THIN friction plate.
On the spring assembly, a new thin friction plate then a new THIN clutch plate.
WARNING - make SURE you carefully remove the ball bearing behind the small pushrod after you remove it, and replace it when reinstalling.
NOTE - holding the rear brake should also stop the rear tire from moving, to remove/install the main nut. If you choose to use the 5th gear/someone sitting on the bike method of removing the center nut, you DO RISK DROPPING THE BIKE as it will be moving forward under pressure. Installation is safe.
Torque specs for the center nut are 65 lbs./ft, inner spring bolts 5 (good and snug) and cover 8.7 (very snug).

I rebuilt clutches a few times decades ago. First was with an engine rebuild I did when I was 8 or 9 years old. Next one was at 13 years old. They were so easy back then on Honda 90 motorcycles. Then at about 14-15 I rebuilt a clutch for a neighbor who had an old BSA cycle. I have never done a clutch plate/spacer replacement since. I see they over complicated it as engineers seem to enjoy doing. I just bought a 2007 FJR1300 and watching your videos I realize I have a lot of work to do on my beast as I bought it with 39,521 miles on it 3 weeks ago. Thank You for educating this old man on what I need to do.
Haha, feel ya!;)) whenever I have a courtesy bike from the garage, it feels like I want to squeeze the clutch lever into the handlebar...;))
I commute around Rotterdam, so 8 miles of traffic is a weekly thing for me, and after almost 3 years on a 2009 and 2013 FJR, I don't feel it anymore.
When I'm filtering for 1 hour+ continuously, then I wish I could stop.
I think the worst was about 2 hours of filtering from Charleroi Airport, Brussels, Belgium, back to Rotterdam.
The highway lanes are a lot narrower here than in the US. It feels like after watching all those biker videos.
Thanks for bringing up the subject!
I'm thinking about getting an FJR1300 and I came across this video by chance.
Really interesting presentation with the information you need and no other filling that other guys use which makes theirs boring.
This is excellent - great job!
I bought a used 2013 FJR and found your channel, and I’m glad I did. Your how-to videos are very well done and extremely helpful and informative. I love your down to earth approach, and the inclusion of things to watch out for that a shade-tree amateur really benefits from. Thanks so much and keep up the great work!
Thanks for watching!
@@TwoWheelObsession Link to the parts list is not working any longer. Do you still have the list?
Thanks so much for this video. I was in traffic last year and my hand was aching. Looking forward to doing this upgrade this winter.
Love it. Well done Bryan, another superb, how to, in real english and you showed the mistake with the ball bearing to save us all from hours of agony and snap-on rage.
Thank you!
love your work, have watched quite a few of your vids and the detail you go into is fantastic. thanks for making life easier for me
You are exactly right. You just saved someone else a huge mess. Thanks so much for the videos.
I have a '16 x diavel and '17 fz09. I didn't notice the light clutch pull on the x but I sure like the slipper clutch on both of them. Good video. You're a smart guy.
Great job Byran as usual. Thanks for taking so much time to do this video. 60Gb of video editing and the job of course. No body has as much info as you. You da man!
+flyby2474 Thanks!
I'm on my first bike (KTM 390 duke). I'm seriously considering a FJR partly because of your channel!
Nice watching your videos, I do not have an FJR but had a 2015 Super Tenere, XTZ1200ES. I really love your attention to details and the effort you put in to your work in enriching the content. Really nice one.
Excellent how-to video Bryan. Thanks.
Thanks for the how to, and information on the clutch upgrade. Just finished upgrading my 2015. Enjoy the information sent out on your channel
+marine systems good job!
La fjr es una moto que me encanta yo tengo la bmw 1200 gs adventure triple black 2017,pero esta yamaha me encanta, buenos videos un saludo desde Ceuta España.
Amazing video! You make it all seem so simple.
Very well done video! Thanks for posting.
Great Video! I'm looking forward to doing this conversion soon.
Nice videos Bryan. Thanks for all your work.
Great up grade. Great video as always B
Well I don't even own an FJR but I really enjoyed this video, it was very interesting and expertly done. Your channel really is one of the very best I've come across on youtube.
Thanks for sharing what you do, it's really appreciated.
Cheers and all the best
Tony
Well done! If you're open to a little comment... you could have some closer views during the video to better see the details. Very nice!
I'm always amazed at people that can do this kind of stuff. Oil change is about all I'm able to do without messing things up. Found this video very informative and interesting so thanks for taking the time to put it together!
+PistolPete63 Thanks for watching!
Don’t feel bad brother I’m right there with you
Thank you have installed no problem
One trick I've done in the past when removing a front sprocket was to stand on the rear brake to stop the back wheel moving, can be tricky but works a treat.
I guess i am overdue for some of the 2 year service! thanks
Excellent video!
+ZioN DannY Thank you!
I fixed up my bike using ProCaliber as well. best prices but took them a while to process the order.
Even though I'd never attempt anything like this, I still thoroughly enjoyed the video. I'm with J Man!
+Biker Paul You don't have to - you just bought a '16 bike ;)
Yes. Very impressive though Bryan.
That was an awesome mod! Great tutorial
+Bikers Quest Thanks!
I have just completed this little project on my '08. Here are a few tips and tricks and how it turned out for me;
1. Be careful making up your parts list. Compare the fiche carefully. An '08 is slightly different to a '14. I bought some parts I did not need and had to go back for a few more. They are all special order so cannot be returned.
2. You can actually buy a proper clutch basket holding tool for just £7.50 on eBay. Or even make one from 2 pieces of steel hinged in the centre using a bolt with each end cracked at 90 degrees. I bought one but still had to modify it by bending the handle outwards in order to clear the engine case.
3. Best to squeeze bearings in using a vice, not a hammer. I wrecked my first set using the hammer technique.
When I first fired up, I found it difficult to find neutral. I guess the plates were still a bit sticky but that eased following a few miles on the road. So a groan turned into a smile. Of course it still 'clonks' heavy into first but that's just what FJRs do.
The clutch pull certainly feels lighter than before. I measured around 7kg before and about 5.5kg now. I can't be exact because it is not a linear progression. I think there is also a slighter shorter pull so I was able to move the lever adjuster.
The slipper makes downshifts so much smoother which is rather nice. Even if you go for it way too early, there is non of the harsh jolt of before.
So it's a nice mod and I'm pleased with it.
1 - Sorry but looking at the microfiche, the only difference is the '08 doesn't use the retaining ring. You may have simply misread. 2. Just hold the rear brake. No tool actually needed. I found that out post install of course! Hammering bearings in is no problem - it's the user, not the tool ;)
Not quite. On an ’08 the ‘Plate, Seat’ and ‘Spring, Clutch Boss’ are prefixed 3P6 so I needed to replace them with the correct 36Y prefixed parts and also the retainer ‘Ring Set’. Also I mistakenly ordered a new set of ‘Plate, Clutch 2’ parts 2H7-16325-00 (6 of them). I did not need to as I could have used the old ones. So just a word of warning to others to be careful because it’s easy to mess up. And a dope slap for me!
Did you try fitting the old plate and spring?
No. I took the new prefix to mean they were different parts. I read somewhere the prefix refers to a code for the bike in which the part was first used. In this case 3P6 v 36Y.
+Mark333032 part number changes can be for absolutely any change even the coating used. The size and function of those parts has never changed. They would have worked just fine.
Well done 👍 👏 ✔️ 👌 😀 🙌
Thank you for your really helpful tutorial. I watched all of your video and really like the way you do with your bike. I wish I can find any part of FJR1300 2012 that I owning in my country.
Thank you again!
+Duy Thanh “Thần Gió” Nguyen Thanks for watching!
Nice video, & good explanations. I own a 2012 FJR that I bought new & for my style of riding, I prefer the standard clutch. When I hit the twisties (we have an abundance of them here in BC Canada) I gear down as I come into some tight stuff rather than apply the brakes. A quick "blip" of the throttle when between gears does ,much the same as a slipper clutch. Maybe when I get old I'll move to a bike with a slipper clutch, but for now, even in stop & go traffic the resistance on my clutch isn't a problem. Thanks for the demonstration, well done!
Super-fast finger-shift my 08 AE.
Don't have the same bike , but I enjoyed the video thanks.
Excellent video but what is the torque spec for the nut that attaches the inner basket
I dont even have an FJR but I liked this video
Totally worth while mod. My clutch forearm is bigger than my jack off forearm from sitting in Atlanta traffic 5 days a week for an hour on an old zx12r. People think I'm a lefty and I'm not.
hahaha !

Great video. I’m having clutch slip/surge issues at low and high rpms and going to try removing, cleaning, soak, reinstall. 2014 FJR 1300A 74k miles. Thanks
Update 75k miles, plates are worn and burnt so doing clutch work today bought new OEM plates and found that item #8 Partszilla RING SET 2H7-16385-00-00, shown at 24:00 on your video, had been destroyed and pieces are all in the clutch housing, so now buying the clip and additional plates behind it, cleaning everything up and going with new oil since I can't trust that that paper clip of a ring set is not anywhere else in my oil. Wish me luck.
Excellent clutch change, I saw the complete video and the recommendations not to lose the steel ball, and how to remove the basket from the clutch, very well explained, I am sure that the steel ball came out and fell on the rags, my fjr is A mod 07 I do not know if the clutch system is the same, I also saw that the lock of the nut slides when putting the nut, I would put a little grease so that it would stick and thus put the nut, I would like you to support me with a tutorial to change the oil pump chain is noisy, i think i saw you in a video with charly sinewan on the mountain i think from colorado, they camped, it was a rainy day, if it was you?
Have been enjoying your helpful videos Bryan!!! This works for the first gens, 2005 specifically as it is what i just bought, as well?
Awesome job making this detailed vid Bryan, thank you.
My '07 FJR is about to hit 300,000 miles, (around 200k miles on the original) and with around 100k now on a low-mileage replacement engine. I figure this upgrade should be a welcome improvement.
I was wondering if you happen to know how this upgrade works with the Gen 1 clutch slave cylinder, since that's a mod I've already got on my Gen 2 to help ease the clutch pull a bit. It is my understanding that Gen 2.5, 3 and up FJRs already run the Gen 1 clutch slave cylinder right?
Hi Mike, Great Video... well explained.
Do I need to order only parts item 2 through to item 31 on Bike Bandits clutch parts list for a (Yamaha FJR1300 ES FJR13ESGC ) Is that correct?
My bike is a 2013.
Great videos! I have pretty big hands so I don't have any issue with the clutch pull weight, even though I am a two finger guy. However, if I did this but put back in the original springs, so I kept the manual clutch lever pull the same but with the additional engine assist, do you think I could use just about any synthetic automotive engine oil I wanted without worrying about clutch slip?
Wow, this is one quality video, well done. Looks like the switch to new FJR wasn't too wise (from gen1 ar 2), but, looking at all the "revision2" upgrades, it's getting pretty worth the money. I wonder if there's something more coming :-)
+Decoy Ex Thanks!
Dumb question but... can't you just put a lump of 2x4 into the rear wheel to stop it turning while up on the center stand?
For 2016 there are 3 parts for ref# 17 . 1 of the 3 parts is from the 13-15 that you re used- 2h7-16325-00-00.If I want to use the part# that would give me the lightest clutch pull would it be the 2h7-16324-00-00 or the 47x-16324-00-00? Thank you. Bifffy
Thorough and informative as usual! I know it was just a quick test ride but...sandals?
+2 Wheeled Rider LOL I know....I should have stayed barefoot ;)
Hi thanks for your very informative video
Any idea where to buy the parts from
I am in the United Kingdom
Another great how-to and watched the entire video ---- wish I understood what I was watching .... think I'll just stick with changing the oil. LOL
+J-Man Wait...you have to CHANGE the oil??
Buongiorno, ha un video dove si vede come fare per sostituire il tenditore della catena di distribuzione?
Ed anche la catena di distribuzione?
that was an excellent video.. i have an 09 2001 gen1 do you know if the slipper cluch this model...god i hope so...
+Neil Chalmers yep
How about doing a video on adjusting valves on the FJR? Thanks.
It’s coming next
How long does this take a Yamaha garage to do you think?
Great videos as usual, keep it up.
As said, bike on the ground-top gear-foot on rear brake for loosening clutch centre nut.
Now that you done the upgrade would you recommend it, is it that much of an improvement?
Yep I love it
Looking for how-to upgrade from 5speed to 6speed. This is cool, thanks!
+Gunars Lodzins not gunna happen. That's called buy a newer bike ;)
I test rode a 2016 the other day. At 80 mph the engine rpm was only about 100 rpm lower than the 5 speed. Not at all that dramatic. When they added the 6th gear they also changed the ratios. The 6th gear was actually a let-down for me.
Great job as usual Byran. Out of interest can this conversion be done on the Gen 2 bikes ?.
+Simon Hay-Heddle all
I'm confused as to why you can't reuse the 7 PLATE, CLUTCH 2 Item #: 2H7-16325-00-00 My 2007 say I have 7 of them and you need 6 for the 2017 clutch but they appear on your microfische. Could I not delete these 6 from my shopping cart? Thanks, Really great video I'm going to do it on mine.
Have you checked into upgrading the gear to the new 6 shifter gearbox? Is it at all possible?
Not possible
Hey Bryan, something fell from the clutch cover as you were taking it off at 9min 8 seconds....you didn't mention it but do you know what it was please?
Just one of the dowel pins
My Bad....apologies.......... I just read that you circled the parts in Red that I need to order. Though, is this a parts list from a 2016 (Yamaha FJR1300 ES FJR13ESGC )
Hi Bryan !!
the parts are from the 2016 model right ?
can i put this update on my 2006 ?
if yes,all the parts to change are shown encircled in red right ?
thanks and congrats again for your very good videos
Yep :)
Tally'd up, the parts are almost $900 from the dealership in Canada! Could probably reduce that fairly substantially with an aftermarket clutch kit for (most of? all?) the plates I suppose
You don't order from a Dealership.
Nice job, Bryan! I admire a person who is not afraid to tackle DIY mods. I know that first hand by owning Nortons my whole life. I have a question. Will the slipper clutch mod work on my '06 FJR AE? Obviously, I don't need easier clutch pull, but will it do anything on downshifting?
+FRANK Gman I do not believe so. The AE already slips and is a completely different system
+TwoWheelObsession Thanks for the feedback. Love these bikes. I still have its predecessor, the '89 FJ 1200 which is a little more on the sport side of sport touring. Keep up the good work.
Wouldn't applying the rear brake with keep the wheel from turning?
Good thing that’s in the description
Did it not fall in the oil when you first took the case off? I swear I heard something plop into the oil.
+Crana No, that was a locator pin - and the ball came out far past that point after the end pushrod was removed.
I wish i could upgrade my 2014 Fjr like you did😒
Damn you, Im going to have to do this now.. maybe parts are cheaper 7 years later...? LOL
Hi
I’m just in the process of buying a very tidy low k’s 2013 FJR, I’ve watched a few of your videos and you have helped me with the decision.
Is there any way I could get the list of parts for the clutch conversion please
Another bike I own has a slipper clutch and I like it, so keen on exploring the option of the conversion
Regards Greg
He has a link in the video description
@@THE-APEX
Thanks I found it back when I posted the question
I had to wait months and months as a lot of the parts were ex Japan 🇯🇵 and on back order. Eventually I did the job, well worth the wait
I just did this on my 2007. Everything went great but like Brian I had a oh crap moment. I was removing the clutch plates with a magnet when i pulled the concave washer out. Thats when I realized the 2007 does not have the small wire retainer
I want to do this to my 2007 as well, anything else different than the video? Thanks.
@@knollyrider Sorry Knolly, didn't get a notification you posted. Nope, everything else was spot on as Brian shows.
@@alaskanmutt Thanks for highlighting the Spring Clip on the '07 (same as my FJR).
Can I take this to mean that you could re-use the #17 Clutch plate from your '07 and are happy with that?
For that part where u need that special tool. I'm thinking just stepping on the rear break while in gear and on its center stand will give you enough gold to undo that big nut. Maybe I'm wrong tho. Just a thought
Hold*
+AsianboiiiGlenn possibly!
Will this also work on my 1st Generation (2004)? Thanks in advance!
it should Pete but double check the microfiche, I did not verify it for differences to Gen II/III
Thanks for the fast reply!
Hey Bryan. You are slowly turning your 2014 into a 2016.:-) Do you think a 2016 engine could slip into a 2005 frame and connect to the electrical system.
Not a chance
One day you should do a subscriber meetup and ride
+Mrapplesauce96 Oh I will - but I need MANY more subscribers first. I do meetups (HERFs) for my other channel CigarObsession :)

Has anyone had success with the slipper clutch on a 1st Gen FJR? I’m rebuilding my clutch this winter and am considering this modification if someone can confirm it fits with the 1st gen.
Did you ever find out if this mod can be made for a GEN I bike? I have a 2004 that needs clutch work and I'd really like to retrofit it with the slipper clutch.
in windows I cant find the description. funny how you move your hands.... you did not provide a part number list...
Bryan ....
Will this work on an 02?
Yes
And do you want to sell me the extra parts you have? Thank you Bifffy
I've been wanting to get smother shifting and came across your video. Great in-depth tutorial! I do all my own maintenance and figure I can tackle this.
I have a 2005 ABS and was wondering if the 2016 parts list will work in mine. I compared the parts list of the 2016 (BikeBandit) to the 2005 and they seem to be the same. Is this a true assumption?
+David Morgan Yep!
Thanks for the confirmation. The bike has been "down" the last couple of days while I was changing the generator cover, oil change, exhaust swap, and switching out the HIDs for LEDs. I can't afford another downtime right now but I'll definitely keep this upgrade in mind and may get to in next month.
For the love of God! Take the fairing off and Use a bowl to soak 🤣 Great video!
Wait, I thought you said in one of your earlier videos that if they did change the clutch that you weren't going to upgrade? Lol
You thought wrong, I said no such thing.
Your right. I watched a bunch of videos yesterday and it was not you. Got you confused with Science_biker doing a review of his. After a while it all bleeds into one long video. Lol
