    Gen I : Location of wiring harness for Yamaha Heated Grips

    Thanks for the feedback. I do not claim to be an electrical engineer in any way. The two grounds are common to each other. I checked that. I figured since one went to the frame and the other to the battery, there would two paths, perhaps one would have lesser resistance in times of load or...

    Gen I - Front wheel

    Howdy, Does anyone know the difference between a 2004 (non-ABS) front wheel and the 2005? I checked and the Part numbers are not the same. Therefor I assume they are not the same, but perhaps it is a minor change. Thanks

    Hey Everyone, Hope you all had a good holiday. I am installing a Yamaha Heated Grip kit on my 2004 (non ABS) and am trying to figure out where the wiring harness for the grip kit should run.

    Lost Power

    I'm new to the Forum, so please forgive me. I've been following this with great interest. This doesn't seem like a hard fix. It's just a matter if Yamaha wants to step up to the plate and address the problem. Either the Spyder can be reproduced in copper with a gold plating which may improve...

    FJRF009.0: Ground Spider Research

    I'd be interested in knowing what it is also. It can be determined by hitting it with a file. I am wondering if this can be reproduced in copper (stamping grade) and plated w/ a gold flash
