My bike broke down on three times, big yellow light on the dash , i unplugged the off the reg/rec and two cable were burned, i tried to clean them up but the engine light still come on.

I rang my local dealer JTS in Bridgend 01656 645552
The yamaha fitter there who changed the loom name was roy

who aranged RAC Yamaha assist to collect the bike

Later on i visited the dealer and explained the problem, while i was there the fitter took the reg/rec plug off and could see the problem, i then explained that there was a known problem with the bike's loom and reg/rec.

i left the bike there and the next day i had a phonecall from JTS who said yamaha had agreed to change the loom and reg/rec free of charge.

After two weeks the bike was ready for collection.




Im not sure if the dealer doesn't want to change the loom and is trying to pull a fast one, i for one have yamaha to be superb for warrenty work.

i had a spring snap on my sidestand on the tenere, i dropped the bike as it stalled at low speed, it damaged the pump, grey plastic side panel and mirror, i rang my local dealer and yamaha changed the lot, they even put new handgaurds on because they had a small scratch.

and as above no bother them changing the loom/reg/rec either, i think alot of it is your dealer not telling yamaha uk that this needs to be done under warrenty.
