[QUOTE="LAF, post: 877261, member: 20868"] At first I was a bit pissed they did not include 10, and 11's in this. Then I see they are infringing on the two Auxiliary Grounding Harnesses developed by our two resident "Grounders". Not sure which pisses me off most? I guess putting on Road Runners harness on my bike with 0 miles was a smart thing to do. Now it seems Yamaha thinks so too. I will not call foul but if you think Yamaha does not read this forum and pays attention to products designed by owners, I got a bridge you might like to buy. I am happy they recognized the issue, and the "fix" is probably the most economical way to "fix" the issue, however I would like to see them pressed to upgrade the wiring in new FJR's or any bike they make with weak wiring. The FJR can not be the only machine they make this way. If I get bit then I will let them deal with it, until then I will run the Road Runner fix which I think by the description on the new recall part is about a 1/4 of what one of the ground harnesses available here is, and with that you gonna get a quarters worth of fix and a monkey all over your bike doing god knows what. If not bitten I would get one of the two harnesses here and call it a day. [/QUOTE]
