Get a good battery, running with a dead battery can damage charging system.
Then stick a volt meter across battery and check 12v not running, 13.5+v engine running

the fuel tank knocking in the slot that its fitted to is tough to see, just bump up at either end or side to duplicate it. Had that same deal on a shadow once.use neopreen foam rubber(placed out of sight) to help eliminate any movement .

you can have dust, sand and other particles getting up into the grease of the hub,, eventually causing it to ware out and fail..

Howdy: Depending on the year some FJs have a nut/screw at the bottom rear of the front cylinder. This can be adjusted and it works.
If the chain has not been adjusted in the past the nut/screw may be
stuck with gunk. Spray a little carb cleaner on the nut/screw and let set for a couple houres then try again. Get a manual for that year follow the "cam chain tensioner" procedure. I do not have enough lines to expain the proceedure. Good luck and ride safe - Doug

Most of the time ABS problems are with sensers but which one? The master cylinder has a fluid level that sticks low evewn if theres enought fluid so makw sure it flates up in the fluild if the light stays on them check the wires and the plugs that plug in the wheel speed sensers as the sensers seldom fail but the wires abd plugs get into troble. Follow the wires from the sensers to the ABS controller and reconnect them and inspect all the covering and wires for troble. Most two wire sensers will have some continuity with an OHM meter but it will be high. If you meter has wave form then put in on one wire to ground with everything connected and turn the wheel and you should see pulse and its a yes or no answer. If the wires and the sensers check out and the levels senser can be proven to work you best let someone with access to the Yamaha dianostic equipment to look at it. Rember that an open brake line or an unbleed brake line will also make the light come on.. Unplug the ABS controller only with the key off and the battery unhooked as these parts are easlily damaged by spickes in power or a low or bad battery. Once all inspections are made and the battery connections cleaned and reconnecdted try again as you may have cleaned something up and it's making now and the system may work just fine

Not overly familiar with your bike, but there is probably a kill switch on the center stand to stop the engine. This prevents the potential problem of coming off the center stand with the wheel spinning.

This is a highly ill - eagle act to do. In the old days we would put an electric drill on the drive cable, but now they make them tamper proof so they only go one way. The bezels are crimped on so you can't get inside them. I expect modern one may be electronic. How will your insurance company know what mileage you have done?

What Exactly does the bike do when it 'loses power'? This will give clues as to where the issue could be. When was the last time the bike was given a major service? Sometimes it can be as simple as a dirty fuel/air filter or an old/worn or dirty spark plug.

Are you wanting the size of the hex bolt head or the thread size and bolt length? Most oil pan plug bolts are either 17mm (5/8th socket) or 19mm (3/4" socket) bolt heads.
