Yamaha FJR description

2007 Yamaha FJR 1300, GREAT LOOKS GREAT PERFORMANCE AND A quot CLUTCH LESS quot TRANSMISSION ANTI LOCK BRAKES ADJUSTABLE ELECTRIC WINDSHIELD HEATED GRIPS FRAME SLIDERS GIVI V46 TOP CASE quot Yamaha Chip Controlled shifting YCC S is an industry first on a sport touring machine The most noticeable difference is the lack of a clutch lever on the FJR1300AE The YCC S system uses two electronically controlled actuators one for the clutch and one for shifting The rider has the option of shifting with via a conveniently located handlebar switch or using the conventional foot shifter The big difference is there is no clutching involved Shift changes are smoother than a conventional manual clutch system and the foot shifter effort has been reduced with this system The benefit is improved rider comfort due to the elimination of clutch hand fatigue especially in stop and go traffic plus reduced foot shifter effort NOTE This system is not an automatic shift system the rider still must shift the bike but without worrying about the clutch quot

Filling a void with an RD350LC

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC.  It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching.  I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration.  Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience.  I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love.  And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor.  The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more.   I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy  next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects  out there so why not have a go yourself?
