12. Replace the fork cap O-ring (Figure 32). Lu-
bricate the O-ring with fork oil before installation.
13. Replace any parts that are worn or damaged.
Simply cleaning and reinstalling unserviceable fork
components will not improve performance of the
front suspension.
Removal/Installation
Cover the front fender, frame and fuel
tank with a heavy cloth or plastic tarp
to protect it from accidental brake
fluid spills. Immediately wash spilled
brake fluid off any painted or plated
surface. Brake fluid will destroy the
finish. Use soapy water and rinse the
area thoroughly.
If handlebar replacement is not re
quired, proceed to Step 10.
1. Securely support the motorcycle on level
ground.
2. Remove all cable ties that secure cables to the
handlebar.
3. Remove the two master cylinder clamp bolts (A,
Figure 39) and remove the master cylinder from the
handlebar. Secure the master cylinder to the frame
with a bunjee cord. Make sure the master cylinder
reservoir remains upright. This prevents brake fluid
spills and helps keep air out of the brake system. Do
not disconnect the hydraulic brake line.
4. Remove the right handlebar switch assembly (B,
Figure 39) as described in Chapter Nine.
5. Remove the handlebar weight and slide the
throttle grip assembly (C, Figure 39) from the han-
dlebar.
6. Remove the left handlebar switch as described in
Chapter Nine.
7. Slide the clutch lever boot away from the ad-
juster and loosen the clutch cable locknut (A, Fig-
ure 40). Rotate the adjuster (B, Figure 40) to

Diagnostic port location for a 04 v-star 1100
Why is my starter clutch turning the wrong way
When I press my clutch in starterturns on but with my kill switch on. Why
The Yamaha V Star 1100 has an ignition circuit cut-off system integrated into the clutch lever holder. This system ensures that the starter motor will only engage if the clutch is pulled in, preventing accidental starts in gear. Additionally, the engine stop (kill) switch must be in the correct position to complete the ignition circuit. If the clutch is disengaged or the kill switch is off, the circuit remains open, preventing the starter from operating.
