MOTORCYCLE IDENTIFICATION INFO EAS00014 GENERAL INFORMATION MOTORCYCLE IDENTIFICATION EAS00017 VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER The vehicle identification number 1 is stamped into the right side of the steering head pipe. EAS00018 MODEL CODE The model code label 1 is affixed to the frame.
FEATURES INFO FEATURES OUTLINE The main function of a fuel supply system is to provide fuel to the combustion chamber at the opti- mum air-fuel ratio in accordance with the engine operating conditions and the atmospheric tempera- ture. In the conventional carburetor system, the air-fuel ratio of the mixture that is supplied to the com- bustion chamber is created by the volume of the intake air and the fuel that is metered by the jet that is used in the respective chamber.
FEATURES INFO FI SYSTEM The fuel pump delivers fuel to the injector via the fuel filter. The pressure regulator maintains the fuel pressure that is applied to the injector at only 2.55 kg/cm higher than the intake manifold pres- sure. Accordingly, when the energizing signal from the ECU energizes the injector, the fuel passage opens, causing the fuel to be injected into the intake manifold only during the time the passage remains open.
Page 15
FEATURES INFO Fuel control block The fuel control block consists of the following main components: Component Function Control block Total FI system control Throttle body Air volume control Pressure regulator Fuel pressure detection Sensor block Intake air pressure sensor Intake air pressure detection Atmospheric pressure sensor Atmospheric pressure detection Coolant temperature sensor...
FEATURES INFO COMPONENTS ECU (Electronic Control Unit) The ECU is mounted underneath the seat, below the toolbox. The main functions of the ECU are ignition control, fuel control, self-diagnosis, and load control. • ECU’s internal construction and functions The main components and functions of the ECU can be broadly divided into the following four items: A.
Page 17
FEATURES INFO • Ignition control The ignition control function of the ECU controls the ignition timing and the duration of ignition energizing. The ignition timing control uses the signals from the throttle position sensor (to detect the angle of the throttle), and the crankshaft position sensor and speed sensor (to detect the speed of the engine).
Page 18
FEATURES INFO Fuel pump The fuel pump, which is mounted in the fuel tank, draws the fuel directly from the tank and pumps it to the injector. A filter that is provided in the fuel pump prevents any debris in the fuel tank from entering the fuel system downstream of the pump.
Page 19
FEATURES INFO Pressure regulator It regulates the fuel pressure that is applied to the injectors that are provided in the cylinders in order to maintain a constant pressure difference with the pressure in the intake manifold. The fuel that is delivered by the fuel pump fills the fuel chamber through the fuel inlet of the regulator and exerts pressure on the diaphragm in the direction for opening the valve.
Page 20
FEATURES INFO Fuel injector Upon receiving injection signals from the ECU, the fuel injector injects fuel. In the normal state, the core is pressed downward by the force of the spring, as illustrated. The needle that is integrated with the bottom of the core keeps the fuel passage closed. When the current flows to the coil in accordance with the signal from the ECU, the core is drawn upward, allowing the flange that is integrated with the needle to move to the spacer.
Page 21
FEATURES INFO Crankshaft position sensor The crankshaft position sensor uses the signals of the pickup coil that is mounted on the right side of the crankshaft. When the rotation of the pickup rotor that is attached to the crankshaft causes the projections on the rotor to pass by the pickup coil, an electromotive force is generated in the coil.
Page 22
FEATURES INFO Cylinder identification sensor The cylinder identification sensor is mounted on the exhaust head cover of the #4 cylinder. When the exhaust cam of the #4 cylinder rotates and the lift of the cam passes by the sensor, the sensor generates a signal and sends it to the ECU.
Page 23
FEATURES INFO Throttle position sensor The throttle position sensor measures the intake air volume by detecting the position of the throttle valve. It detects the mechanical angle of the throttle valve through the positional relationship between the moving contact that moves in unison with the throttle shaft and the resistor board. In actual operation, the ECU supplies 5 V power to both ends of the resistor board and the voltage that is output by the throttle position sensor is used to determine the angle of the throttle valve.
Page 24
FEATURES INFO Intake air pressure sensor and atmospheric pressure sensor • Intake air pressure sensor The intake air pressure sensor is used for measuring the intake air volume. The intake air volume of every intake stroke is proportionate to the intake air pressure. Therefore, the intake air volume can be measured by measuring the intake air pressure.
Page 25
FEATURES INFO Coolant temperature sensor The signals from the coolant temperature sensor are used primarily for making fuel volume compen- sations during starting and warm-up. The coolant temperature sensor converts the temperature of the coolant into electrical signals and sends them to the ECU. 15.5 0.322 1 Connector...
Page 26
FEATURES INFO sensor The O sensor has been adopted to enable the catalyst to function at a high degree of efficiency by maintaining the air-fuel mixture near the stoichiometric ratio (14.7:1). This sensor, which is a zirco- nia type, utilizes the oxygen ion conductivity of the solid electrolyte for detecting the oxygen concen- tration levels.
Page 27
FEATURES INFO Lean angle cut-off switch The lean angle cut-off switch stops the supply of fuel to the engine in case the motorcycle overturns. When the motorcycle is in the normal state, the cut-off switch outputs a constant voltage of approxi- mately 1.0 V (low level).
FEATURES INFO FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM Operation and control The fuel injection timing, injection duration, ignition timing, and the coil energizing duration are con- trolled by the ECU. To determine the basic injection timing, the ECU calculates the intake air volume through the signals from the intake air pressure sensor, throttle position sensor, cylinder identifica- tion sensor, and crankshaft position sensor.
Page 29
FEATURES INFO Determining the final injection duration The intake air volume determines the basic injection duration. However, at a given intake air vol- ume, the volume of fuel that is required varies by the engine operating conditions such as accelera- tion or deceleration, or by weather conditions.

Page 31
FEATURES INFO Fuel control during normal driving In synchronous injection during normal driving, fuel is injected on a cylinder-by-cylinder basis when all of the conditions below are met: 1 Other than the stop mode 2 Cylinder identification completed 3 Other than overrun To determine the injection timing, the ECU calculates the injection timing through the use of the 3D control map provided in the ECU, which is based on the throttle position and the engine speed.
Page 32
FEATURES INFO Fuel injection compensation control • Starting injection control The coolant temperature is used for determining the injection duration in order to ensure proper start ability. To suit the engine’s operating conditions, the starting injection duration is determined by applying a starting compensation coefficient to the basic injection duration, which forms the basis of the injection duration.
Page 33
FEATURES INFO • Starting cylinder control #1/4 1 Injectors #1,4 È Cylinder identification Ê Injection 2 Injectors #2,3 Ë Stop sensor 3 Starting asynchro- É Crankshaft position Ì Synchronous injection nous injection sensor 4 Group injection • After-start enrichment After-start enrichment provides enrichment compensation during a prescribed duration following the starting (firing) of the engine.
Page 34
FEATURES INFO • Warm-up enrichment When the coolant temperature is low, a warm-up coefficient is applied in accordance with the sig- nals from the coolant temperature sensor in order to effect fuel enrichment. Because the coolant temperature determines the coefficient, the coefficient changes with the fluctuations in the coolant temperature.
Page 35
FEATURES INFO • Acceleration enrichment Acceleration enrichment is provided in accordance with the signals from the throttle position sensor. As the rider operates the accelerator to accelerate the motorcycle from a constant speed, the throt- tle position sensor actuates in unison with the accelerator. The ECU interprets that acceleration has taken place through the throttle position sensor signal and executes acceleration enrichment.
Page 36
FEATURES INFO • Deceleration control Deceleration control is effected in accordance with the signals from the throttle position sensor. As the rider operates the accelerator to decelerate the motorcycle that is in motion, the throttle position sensor acutates in unison with the accelerator. When the engine speed is greater than a prescribed value with the throttle fully closed (thus applying engine braking), the ECU executes a deceleration fuel cut-off.
FEATURES INFO THREE-WAY CATALYTIC CONVERTER SYSTEM System outline This is a highly efficient exhaust gas cleaning system that effects air-fuel control through a joint effort by the FI system, O sensor, and the three-way catalytic converter system. By effecting com- prehensive control of the air-fuel ratio in this manner, this system reduces the CO, HC, and NOx in the exhaust gases.

Page 39
FEATURES INFO Large amounts of both CO and HC are generated when the mixture is rich (as indicated by insuffi- region A). Conversely, large amounts of NOx are generated when the mixture is lean (as cient O region B). Under these conflicting characteristics, the system maintains indicated by excessive O the mixture within an extremely narrow range C of stoichiometric ratio (14.7:1).
Page 40
FEATURES INFO Air-fuel ratio compensation equipment An O sensor is provided in the exhaust pipe upstream of the catalyst, to enable the catalyst to operate at a high degree of efficiency. The O sensor detects the level of concentration of the oxy- gen remaining in the exhaust gases.
FEATURES INFO AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM The air induction system (AI system) introduces fresh air into the exhaust port in order to burn the unburned gas (which is present in the exhaust gas) in the exhaust pipe. The burning of the unburned gases in this manner enhances the efficiency of the catalyst and results in cleaner exhaust gases.
FEATURES INFO COMPONENTS 1.Air cut-off valve The air cut-off valve consists of a plunger that is mounted inside the core of a solenoid coil, and a valve at the end of the plunger for opening and closing the air passage. Due to the force of a spring, the valve is in constant contact with valve block A, and thus keeps the air passage open.
Page 43
FEATURES INFO Instrument panel Function indication The indications of the self-diagnosis function can be checked and inspection operations can be per- formed through the use of the multi-function meter on the instrument panel. Based on the signals received from the sensors, the ECU inputs the signals into the multi-function meter.

As with the dash panels, Yamaha used a variety of fasteners on this job, including Allen head fasteners, push-pin fasteners, and 1/4 turn Philips head fasteners. See your owner's manual for a more complete description of removing each.

The "Barbarian Jumper Mod" Next, remove the airbox cover. At least all 4 of these are the same 1/4 turn fastener. Unfortunately, the one indicated by the screwdriver is recessed and a PITA. http://www.micapeak.com/bike/FJR1300/howto/jumper.html (3 of 9) [15/05/2003 5:41:02 PM]...

The "Barbarian Jumper Mod" With the covers out of the way, the ECU is now accessible. Squeeze the black latch on the top of the connector as you pull it out of the ECU. On the underside of the connector are 3 white bars. Using a fingernail or http://www.micapeak.com/bike/FJR1300/howto/jumper.html (4 of 9) [15/05/2003 5:41:02 PM]...

The "Barbarian Jumper Mod" small screwdriver, push the left one (as pictured) in about 1/32". This unlocks the wires in the connector. Pin #27 is the 5th from the left on the bottom row. It houses a yellow wire with a red stripe -- 1/2 of the Barbarian Jumper. Carefully remove this wire from the connector.

The "Barbarian Jumper Mod" Using a small piece of stiff wire (I used some .030 MIG wire, but a paperclip or safety pin would probably work) gently push up from the ECU side of the connector to lift the wire to pin 27 and the white plug in pin 25. Do not force anything! The metal terminal ends on the wires are fragile and easily damaged.

The "Barbarian Jumper Mod" The plug is small. Very small. And bouncy. It can travel a surprising distance when deflected off the airbox. If you drop it you are in for more fun than a snipe hunt. Do not ask me how I know this. Use tweezers. Put the plug in pin 27.

Make sure all the wires in the left 1/3 of the connector are fully seated and try again.

They are a hollow, threaded rivet that can be installed on the headers "blind" -- that is, without removing the headers. Yamaha instructs North American dealers to install these if it is necessary to check the CO adjustment of the fuel injection system.

Installing Riv-Nut ports in the FJR's Headers This is a riv-nut tool. Similar to a standard pop rivet gun, but with interchangeable adapters and anvils sized for the insert being installed. The appropriate adapter is screwed into the tool, followed by the corresponding anvil. In use the riv-nut is threaded onto the adapter, inserted into the hole, and compressed against the anvil when the handle is squeezed to draw the adapter inwards.

Installing Riv-Nut ports in the FJR's Headers First a hole is drilled into the pipe where the port is required. European and Oceanic models have ports installed from the factory. Migmagal reports they are located "About 5 inches after the cylinder exits on each tube" and Woody concurs saying they are "about 125mm from the top of the exhaust ports".
Page 611
Installing Riv-Nut ports in the FJR's Headers Here the riv-nut is assembled on the tool and inserted into the hole ready to go. One squeeze of the handle is sufficient. Attempting to compress the riv-nut further will only strip the threads. As described earlier, unscrew the tool from the insert using the removal knob.

Installing Riv-Nut ports in the FJR's Headers The end result. The upper portion of the riv-nut has been mushroomed firmly against the wall of the pipe, following the curve, providing a threaded port. I chose 1/4"-20 NCT aluminium inserts for this example. Following this I inserted an oxy-acetelene torch into the other end and adjusted it so flames were shooting out the end past the insert and left it until the pipe started to glow a dull red through most of it's length.

Installing Riv-Nut ports in the FJR's Headers The hole is sealed with a bolt when not in use. As can be seen from this picture, the bolt may protrude into the pipe unless cut to length. Besides being a potential for further restriction, the exposed threads could become clogged with carbon deposits from the exhaust making future removal difficult or impossible.
Page 614
Installing Riv-Nut ports in the FJR's Headers When cutting a thread, it's a good idea to temporarily install a nut first. Cut the thread off beyond the nut, then wind the thread past the end of the nut. If the thread binds while removing the nut, make sure the thread is not protruding past the nut and simply tap it against something solid to re-form the thread.

With all due respect to Yamaha, I offer this option which has no restriction to exhaust flow. I drilled a 33/64" hole in the pipe, threaded a bolt through a nut, inserted the protruding thread through the hole, and welded the nut to the pipe.
