I had exactly the same problem on my 84 FJ1100 ! I followed your video and it's fixed ! Saved me just buying a new starter motor. I wouldn't have had the confidence to do it without your video. Huge thanks 😁👍
Good vid. Here's a tip, if you need to remove the airbox, it's easier to loosen the bolts holding the subframe. Then you can move the subframe to create the room to pull the airbox back a little.
Greetings from across the pond. Am entertaining an FJ purchase in the next few days. Not sure if you still have that one but I enjoyed your problem solving processes about the brushes and then the bushing. You seem to grasp that *someone* got it together at some point and you can do the same. I also liked your philosophy and you and the bike growing together. Subscribed. Cheers.
Thank you! Yes I still have the bike Its had its 'shaken' bi-yearly road test and now its going through the process of registering it for use in Japan. Should be ready in a few weeks

Thanks that sounds like it wouldve helped a lot
You have the upgraded 4 brush starter motor found in the fjr1300 much stronger than the stock 2 brush fj1200.

Hey do you only use an fzr 1000 rear wheel. No further adjustment needed.
Super robota
So did the starter work??
Yes the starter wasn't the problem on my bike. It turned out to be a faulty starter relay
