    Can you talk me out of buying a Scala Rider Q1 Teamset?

    If you look around, you can buy the Helmet Clamp Kit SMH A0304 that has a Aux output instead of speakers, that I run with a set of Earmold speakers. Then just buy the Sena SMH10-M01Replacement Module. Worked out cheaper anyhow, Ebay is your friend.

    Can you talk me out of buying a Scala Rider Q1 Teamset?

    Yep !!! Don't do it, the Sena is much better, far better.

    Spare key will not start my 08

    You apparently do not understand the difference between the master red key and the 2 black keys. You can not copy a master key without spending huge dollars, you can easily copy a normal chipped key. The master key can perform functions that a normal chipped key can't. There is a difference...

    Spare key will not start my 08

    It's not Yamaha's solution, it's the only way to have a working bike and the reason why there is such a thing as a immobiliser in the first place. It is rare, having a need for the master key, but a few years ago, some dealers were proactive in replacing the ECU on some of the Gen 2 bikes that...

    Hose Orientation for the Auto-Choke circuit

    What is the RPM when you first start up the bike ? The bike always starts on fast / cold idle, ie the Fast Speed Idle Circuit. If not someone has played around with the adjuster or has disabled it. As the wax motor heats up, via the 2 small coolant pipes, it blocks off the 4 fast speed idle...

    Bike #5 for me.

    Thanks Gents, Just so nice to get some freedom back, to don a helmet and jacket again. Considering I nearly ended up on the stainless table 4 weeks ago. The Spyder is a somewhat different type of bike, I've kind of "learnt it" within my first ride. Just got to bulk myself up & put on 30+...

    My TLR's battery is behind the lower left front fairing, not all batteries are located under the seat.

    Bike #5 for me.

    Greetings, Well today marked a turning point in my recovery. 11 admissions in 11 months, but slowly improving now, all Crohns related. Bought a Spyder RT-S Limited, quite nice. It's been over 11 months without wearing a helmet, was going to blow my brains out, stir crazy. So today I did...

    Spare key will not start my 08

    LOL LOL all in good fun. Let us know how you go, cheers. A lot of cop bikes here Down Under can be bought cheap at auctions, mind you they bring the market value down a lot. The cops normally sell them off after 2 years. A lot do not come with the master key and the new owners don't realise...

    Spare key will not start my 08

    Well I am sorry for not reading the passage re having the red master key. It was about 5.30 here in the AM lying down in bed. Just because of that, you Americans give me curry on my spelling, the CORRECT WAY to spell immobiliser or colour. You guys are just barbarians & hack everything to...

    Spare key will not start my 08

    No use asking the USA gents, it's your immobiliser. Really hope you have the red master key or you are F*^#ed. It does have one doesn't it? Costs about $3500 AUD if you have lost it or it doesn't come with the bike. New ECU and immobiliser, all new keys and barrels.

    Do I Have a Spider Problem?

    Yep, I think there has been a number of official reports to the authorities to warrant a proper official recall on the whole wiring harness. Or a lot of owners just haven't bothered. And of course dealers will not report such events / faults. In Australia we have only had a few Spider Bites...

    Do I Have a Spider Problem?

    There was just a spate of Spider Bites recently on 2 forums due to the bypass harness not being installed correctly.

    Do I Have a Spider Problem?

    The original recall fix, the S4 bypass lead, (if installed correctly, lol lol) was to fix all the problems ..................... NOPE it only addressed one particular fault, look at all the other different types of neutral connector faults, the S6, S7 and S8 and some other odd ball ones...

    Do I Have a Spider Problem?

    May pay to read this thread. https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php/topic/161335-fjrf0094-spiderintermittent-ground-wire-failures-2010-and-later-research/page-1 You really don't want to look at the Gen3 wiring, it looks horrible ad hoc on my AE, ES for you guys over there. Took one look, a...

    Do I Have a Spider Problem?

    Just bite the bullet and do it yourself. Make up your own bypass for all 6 12volt neutral connectors. They F*****ed up again by the looks of it. Just stop worrying about Yamaha and do it, you know it will done right. Spend an afternoon on it and it will be all fixed,problem over.
