    beware LED instrument bulbs.

    Hi, my last post had me pondering on the verge of pulling out my gas tank to fix the permenantly on reserve fuel light and switch, HOWEVER!, I read a thread on here saying that the fuel res light is part of the circuit, so I thought about it and wondered if the voltage difference using led...

    Instrument after market cover

    I've come across what looks to be either a polished aluminum or chrome instrument cover (genuine Yamaha part). It goes over the stock plastic cover. Never seen one before anyone have one? are they rare?

    Instrument cluster changes in Gen1 ???

    Howdy... I own a 2001 Gen1, but am looking to buy replacement parts off an instrument cluster from a 90's model. It looks the same from the pictures, just curious if you guys know whether all the holes line up, etc. I'm planning to salvage the METALIZED facia cover, and maybe even some of the...

    Make your own instrument face-plate

    Custom DIY face-plates are pretty simple to make. The only pain in the butt is deciding what goes where, as we all have different ideas of what we would like. Here is a .rar file, with a couple of different files, of a blank face-plate with a reference for a 2.25" and a 1.75" hole. It is in 1...

    No headlight, no instrument lights?

    I walked out of a friend's house last night, got on the bike, started her up and-hey presto, no headlight and no instrument lights. I still had running lights, tail light, turn signals and brake lights. All fuses are fine, no loose connections I could find. Is this the symptom of a sticky...

    Instrument Cluster gone Berzerk!

    Today I killed my instrument cluster ... I think. Has anybody else seen anything like this. I took the bike out for a nice thrashing. On the way home, the instrument cluster went berzerk. No neutral light. RPMs at zero until I start moving, then they are all over the place. No blinkers. If I...

    Yamaha Instrument Cowl Not available for quite awhile.

    If you have one you better take care of it. I just spent the mourning trying to find one and Nobody that I have found has one in stock. Gary McCoy informed me today that Yamaha has decided to stop making them. But due to the volume of orders they are outsourcing them to someone else. And...

    Replacement Instrument Panel Lenses

    Anybody know of a source for these panel lenses without buying a whole Instrument Assembly from eBay? I tried several Yamaha OEM parts sources and the best I can source there is the bulbs. I Googled many different queries and I can't locate anything.

The question I'm asking is, are they on a seperate fuse? I remember there being two 30amp fuses, but is there another and if so, where? Left...
