[QUOTE="yamatour, post: 1131919, member: 27277"] Ok, I spoke with the Tech today: [B]Burned spyder #4[/B]. I addressed this when I lived in Texas, July 2011 the dealer installed a sub-wire kit installed as per the recall. part # 90891-30074-00. The Tech here in MD had components available from a salvaged harness (from crashed bike) to repair mine. Damaged was cut out and replacement soldered (this is a guy who repaired water-cooled IBM main frames) into place. Remainder of the spyders inspected good. All indications are that no other components are at fault i.e., ECU, side stand switch. All lights, start functions test good on the lift. He will test ride when the wx improves. I really trust the work that he does, but, as he said..."your confidence" in the bike may be shaken by this experience. He didn't think a new harness was called for, in his experience (from one grey beard to another) if it burns in ok on start up of all systems, it is ok to go. I am inclined to take the bike and ride it on ever increasing radii until/if she fails me, then do a Walter White on it and go for something else. I appreciate your thoughts. jf [/QUOTE]
