Hi guys..

I've encountered a strange problem with my bike in this few weeks.. Need suggestions if any of u guys ever experience the same problem.

 

1. While riding, engine suddenly cut and die off.. Electrics still going on strong. Clutch in to Neutral and crank. Engine started as normal, engage 1st gear engine CUT off. Was in 2nd lane, quickly on Hazard light move to the left while FREE-WHEELING).

 

2. Stop by the side. Crank on Neutral, engine started normally. Clutch in,engage 1st gear, engine cut off AGAIN..

 

3. Crank again on Neutral, let engine idling for 1 minute. Engage 1st gear, bike return to normal.. Move off..

 

This already happened 3x but very seldom.. Thought to be batt problem bcos 1 yr never change.. So now already change, so far no problem until it happened again just now. The 3rd time (1st time considered after new batt chage-out)..

Btw if ur wondering. Mine's a 08 model, mileage ard 75k km.

 

Any opinion?.................

 

Sounds like the side stand safety switch issue to me.

[Kazky]

I had this problem but managed to isolate it to a faulty iginition wiring.

It started off as sudden engine die out during normal cruising once in a while. As the wiring got worse, it'll cut out when i make turns and finally frequently as long as the ignition wiring is not in its "sweet spot". Replce the ignition assy and works fine now.

 

There is another slimmer possibility that it may be due to a burnt ignition switch plate. There was a recall for some 2nd gen bikes and even a bulletin to instruct the dealers how to get the ignition switch assy replaced. Thats how I learn to replace the switch assy.

 

First off, displace the ignition wiring around when your engine is running to see whether the engine dies and work from there. Good luck bro.

Wow.. Have yet to check. Going on a trip in 3rd week of Dec.. Remember how much is it when u change ur ignition wirings? Is it the whole unit?

That was what i suspected too.. The limit switch. But how come this problems rose? I never had any probs with side stands before.

BRO u might wan to try bypass the side stand safety switch and see how it goes, if its ok dan just change the switch is much cheaper dan doing ignition wiring i bet should be the stand side safety switch faulty thats why when u hit 1st gear its cut off i got that problem on my last time bike but dono abt fjr so u might try it out.

Hey guys. Wanna ask if anyone is using the Ermax Windshield at the moment.?

[wubefrub]

for which model? thing is, the ermax windshield is good in that the shape help a bit more in deflected oncoming air. but somehow i still miss the original windshield.

[flareon1982]

Mine is the 06 model. Any issue with the screen too big that it will hit the mirror stem when full retracted? Have seen a few with the windshield touching and making a "Scratch" mark on the mirror bridge. Dunno what brand shield it is though

[wubefrub]

i dont know about 06 model (mine's 04), but i doubt it'll hit the mirror stems bro. maybe u could do a test at motoworld first?

[nismo786]

Hi bros...

Any of you guys going for Manjung Bike Week in Lumut on 10-12/12/2010..??

Total 32 bikes...17 are FJRs

Can get to know u guys...

[Parallel]

Morning guys,

 

Done with hunting.. this is my first Class 2 bike, '06 model with Two Brothers End Cans.

I'll be her second owner this coming 15th. Too excited, I forgotten to check the mileage..

A little bit of polishing will do her good.

 

Mind I ask, What's the recommended range to do an oil and filter change out?

 

Africakali,

May I copy your FJR manual?

 

Wubefrub,

Can't find that FX979D bro. But thanks again.
