TIL Most of the screws on my Yamaha motorcycle (and most Japanese products) are not phillips screws, but rather, are Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) screws. I’ve been tinkering on things for over 40yrs and never knew. New JIS screwdriver and bit order was just placed on Amazon. 🚁😁

Wow, that explains why brake mc covers strip with a phillips...

Yep, classic example. I was watching a carb overhaul video when I got sent down the rabbit hole.
