Yamaha xjr 400 engine rattles

SOURCE: too much oil in engine

The cutting out is just a coincidence. Go with the correct amount of oil. The piston is splash lubricated. Too much oil kills the splash and the cylinder gets poor lubrication. If your model has a carb, ( as opposed to fuel injection ), then clean the carb and air filter then put in a new stock NGK spark plug. This should take care of the problem.

Please rate this solution. Thanks niknak!

10w40 or 10w 50. Either will do fine.

I also have an 06 Roadliner. I use 20w50 Lucas sythetic motorcycle oil with great results. Will later switch to Rotell T Synthetic 5w40 (Dark Blue Jug at Walmart) as it costs alot less than Lucas.

What the heck is a Husaberg?

SOURCE: Yamaha Enduro Clutch not engaging

i actuall have a yamaha enduro 100 and had this same problem.
First thing is take the clutch apart take all the rings out and clean them good with momry cloth assemble the clutch compleatly as it came out and when tighting the springs tight them all one turn at a time and after everytime you go around try to move youre clutch with youre bike in gear. if it trys to move it is engageing just keep turning the screws untill they stop. also recomend putting threadlocker on the drive gear bolt and the clutch bolt that holds the clutch on. if you have and questions just e-mail me at [email protected] just make shure to tell me that i responded to youre fixya question about youre bike and i will walk you threw it.

ps just rember to put the clutch pushrod back in
