What does the code 12 description say? My thoughts if you hear a click that’s the bike sending power through the relay trying to start still.

Most Japanese applications (Bike and Cars alike) recommend NGK plugs, and NGK plugs happen to be some of the best plugs you can get. Arguably the single best for Japanese engines. Some people swear by their AC Delco or whatever here in American because of their old car (and old wives tales) but many fail to realize those were American engines, and often AC Delco is recommended....

I know the feeling very well. I had a good year where I spent more time working on the bike than actually riding it. It makes no sense why this bike is still my favourite lol! It may be possible doing it that way but honestly the tank comes off relatively easy / quick and gives you more visibility / light and room to work with. If I were to do the job again I would likely still take the tank off. You could start with the coolant reservoir and take a quick look in at how tight it may be but I personally wouldn’t waist to much time fighting.

My only advice would be just make sure no rattle is coming from the timing chain tensioner on the right side of the bike. Apparently those tensioners are a common failure item as well and usually make noise on cold starts when they are on the way out.

Where did you buy the starter

I was having a hard time finding any starters in stock. I ended up just getting a cheap one off of Amazon for now. It works but not sure how it will hold up In the long run. I spent under $100 so I don’t have a lot of faith in it to be honest. Time will tell. Unfortunately my riding season is over so will have to wait until next season to put some more hours on the bike.

Thanks. I’m having the same issue. But I’m getting the starter, Stator and starter relay all at once.

No problem. Replacing everything is a good idea to save yourself from any future headaches.

Yamaha make some shit engineering decisions sometimes, no need to bury a service part under shit loads of pipework, Fzs1000 starter is virtually identical in design to the R1, but a 15min job to replace.

Ya I do like the fz design for how out in the open everything is! Even simple maintenance like oil changes are twice as fast.
