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.

A great copper washer for the oil drain bolt. Its main advantage is the right hardness. When tightening, it undergoes plastic deformation, so it perfectly fulfills its role - seals. Beware of washers made of copper alloys. Some of them are so hard that they do not yield even when hit with a hammer - they are not suitable for sealing the oil drain.

Some time ago I began to apply the principle of replacing copper washers at the time of oil change (previously I burned out). I must admit that for 1 zl it is not worth fighting with the old washer, especially since you will not get the same effect as with a new one. Now I treat the washer as a mandatory set - I always buy a set of oil + filter + drain bolt washer.

I received the parcel very quickly, the product was very well packaged and corresponded perfectly to the photo and to my expectations. The price is more than interesting. I haven't used it yet, but at first sight it should do the trick without any problem.
