www. SpdZn .com Yamaha FJR1300 FJR Hot Gas Tank Heat Fix Insulation Kit FREE SHIPPING INCLUDED TO USA STATES This is a HEAT FIX KIT comprised
of one piece of carefully cut and shaped automotive, industrial,
metal foil lined, heat and sound insulation material developed
specifically for the intended use of blocking heat. Many FJR1300 owners have
described a problem, ...the bike gives off too much heat under
the gas tank. Some even report they will not ride the bike if
the gas tank gets close to empty, as they fear the risk of a
possible explosion. Others have come up with fixes of plumbers
pipe insulation and other various home remedies, etc. I have
installed this on my own FJR (above) to basically just keep the
tank cooler as it sits over a 1298cc-145 horsepower, in-line 4
cylinder power house. I did notice the tank would get pretty
warm and didn't like this situation -although it never got too
hot to touch. Some FJR riders complain about excessive heat near
the crotch area on this particular bike and Yamaha has
redesigned the 2006/2007/2008 models to be more effective in
routing the heat away from the driver, ...I see this as a good
indication there really is a bit of a problem on the 2005 and
previous model year bikes. Even though I have sold this kit to
sooo many 2006, 2007and 2008 owners I cant even believe it! So here you have a real world
solution, a specific insulation material, precut to install in
under ten minutes! All that is required is to loosen the front
gas tank bolts about 1/4" then remove the rear spindle/pivot
bolt which holds the rear of the gas tank, raise the tank (use a
block of wood to hold it up), insert insulation, lower the tank
and reinstall the hardware, it is that simple! My tank barely
gets warm after hours and hours of riding after this
modification, ...which I feel Yamaha should have at least
offered to pre-2006 FJR owners, there has been enough
complaining about the problem on the internet anyway. I think
the total fix for the heat problem is to install this insulation
and conduct a throttle synchronization, or have your favorite
Yamaha certified tech do this, then I bet all your heat problems
disappear forever. As shown as installed, install time
is about 10 minutes: You will receive a specifically
cut shape of this double sided metal foil lined insulation
material. This insulation was designed specifically as a heat
barrier and reflector. Fits very easily under the gas tank and
still allows the engine to run at normal temperatures and does
not block airflow, I have put over 12,000 miles on my personal
2005 FJR with this installed and it runs just like it did
without the insulation, except the gas tank remains cooler all
the time now. As an added bonus it lets you hear the exhaust
output sound a bit more as it lowers the engine sounds just a
tad. Anyway, I thought I could help out fellow FJR owners by
making this kit and making it easy. PS: Don't do what I did, order
insulation, wait, wait, wait, find out its back-ordered, finally
get it, try to make the right shape, get blisters on your hands
from using the wrong scissors to cut it, use a box cutter and
cut yourself, go crazy trying to get the right shape, etc, etc,
and end up with a mess to clean up: ***This is a newer version of a kit
I have been selling with nothing but success since 2005, this
new material is 100% waterproof and will not absorb water at
all, it has a higher heat blocking rating and is more durable
than the older style kit making it more ideal for those FJR
owners that like to take advantage of the heat in the winter and
remove the insulation during that season. The older kit was a
two piece, single foil sided compressed fabric type material,
the actual insulation was blue in color. (in case you were
wondering). The new version also has tabs which pull through to
make installation easier and tighter for better heat blocking
than previously possible. If you have and old version (blue on
one side aluminum on the other and would like to upgrade, please
contact me . A FEW SAMPLE
