- Stripping a XJR1300 engine! Yamaha XJR 1300 Shoogly Shed Motors
Happy New Year! Time to get right in to the nitty gritty of this bike build...starting with that famous 1300cc engine of pure muscle!
Always the hardest bit doing the strip down, hope there aren't any nasty surprises when it comes to checking the internals 🤞🏻
Nice one. Never really delved into engines much. Most I've done is the valve clearances on it.
Hi Great vid
It was a pleasure to watch somone who is confident on the tools, have you been inside these yamahas before?
My first 4 cylinder rebuild 🤞🏻
Great video. Keep up that good work and motivation 👏
Just forget about that clutch. Install a Barnet full kit with coils in pressure plate and better frictions and discs. XJR original clutches divide in 2 types: The ones that already slip with full throttle and the ones that will slip in nearby future.
How many miles on that engine Euan ? I’ve had 3 FJR1300’s. Same engine. I put 60k on one of them and it was fresh as the day I got it. Oil is cheaper than metal I was always told 👍
Only about 30k but Im wanting it to be as fresh as possible plus I'm coating the cases 💪
Awesome as always Euan. And now I have video to reference when I do mine this winter. Was thinking you could use letter stamps on the crankcase bolts so you know which one goes where?
Very nice work. I'm going to do quite the same on my 1200, the engine must be completely opened and verified.. Good luck.
Un bon boulot
Happy New year Shoogly..looking forward to seeing the build progress..all the best mate..
Happy New Year 🎉 Happy. New (reconditioned) engine.
Great episode, looking forward to seeing how it all goes back together again.
Thanks for the vid! I recently stripped one too and I struggled with the head too!! Same issue as yours, only the plastic sheathing on the head bolts had also disintegrated and I fought the good fight with them!! 3 hours of picking them out bit by bit with a scalpel and tweezers, oh the joys! Looking forward to the next one, cheers!
Make a cardboard template for the case bolts with their numbers on it. Measure each bolt as you remove it and mark the template.
You can then scan it and make it available for other in the future.
Don't lose the rubber blanking cap for the end of the crank. The one for the XJ900 is NLA.
Might want to research putting a new starter clutch in, it's a "must do" on the XJ900's.
Just my 2c.
I was about to say, the cardboard would still have been solution for mapping
Out of interest how did you get the front studs loss iv been fighting mine for over 12 hours trying to get them unstuck
Yes been here too. Removing the head is a nightmare. Those 2 studs at the front seize solid. I in the end cut through one of the studs just above the head gasket with a junior hacksaw. The head went to a machine shop where the stud was removed and the area where the cut was made repaired. I replaced all the studs with stainless. Happy days.
Thanks man👍
This video will help me.
Awesome man. What a huge amount of work!
Glad to see you got those studs out 🎉🎉
Great video again and very interesting. I do feel you should invest in a garage heater as you look frozen lol reminds me of when I go out and work in mine.
My quilted overalls keep me toasty!
Jeez man I get the dismantling but getting that lot back together now that's daunting 😉 impressive stuff 👌👍
Looks fine to me if you film details. 💡
Nice work there, new sub from me
