The instrument according to the description does not fit the Xj600 51J (87). However, I found somewhere on the web information that it is a replacement for Yamaha's YM-01245. According to the service manual, such a designation has a gauge for this motorcycle. So I ordered it and it fits. Operation of this gauge is, contrary to the opinions on the forums, child's play, the key to success is accurate axial installation with the shaft cam and following the service manual. Assembly of the instrument, removal of the valve plate, insertion of a new one, and finally removal of the instrument takes about 5 minutes. On the forums they write that you need to file something or ream the holes - total nonsense! The edge of the head in the place of installation of the gauge is not straight, but runs along a curve, so the gauge adheres to this curve point-wise - it does not matter. Just axial with the cam of the shaft and fits perfectly and the first time. I recommend using this jig- the forum methods of supporting the valves with a clamp make it difficult to remove the valve plate and risk bending the valve! I recommend, it fits Xj600 51j.

This bolt is quintessentially my yamaha. It bolts in like my maxima does at speed. The build quality is better than the sides of my motorcycle clad in pseudochrome. The previous screw was crooked, making changing the oil filter an ordeal. Thanks to this screw, the activity performed when I was throwing out Latin sentences with the speed of bullets from PPSh 41 takes a few moments. In addition, I stopped swearing at this activity, which has a positive effect on my mortal life. I recommend products from Gmoto, because it is a store where I can find a really wide range for my grata!

The material gives the impression of good quality. The fit of the gasket without objection. Durability is hard to judge after a short time of use. So far nothing leaks :)

It looks normal. I will be able to give an opinion when the gasket is not leaking after 3 seasons.
