who cares?

That's a good question, who gives a shit about your bike?  Keep going and the answer will be no one.

Funny you don't remember posting your bike, but you remember keeping the add on there "for like a week just to see if I could get anything out of it"

The point isn't about you trying to sell your bike. It is about Pat's #1 rule. The one you agreed to follow.



When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

At least have the courtesy of listing it here, first. You probably have a lot of nice, new parts that could be used more productively!

On second thought. it's probably waaaayyyyyyyy too expensive.

Geez, I wonder what stories the *NEXT* owner will have about the "PO".

     YAMAHA DEALER:  How may I help you?
          NEW OWNER:   I need a few parts for my 1992 FJ-1200.
     YAMAHA DEALER:  No problem.

                     <transaction ensues>
     Later....

     YAMAHA DEALER:  How may I help you?
          NEW OWNER:  These fucking parts you sold me for my **1992 FJ-1200** (DON'T FIT/DON'T WORK)!!
     YAMAHA DEALER:  Ohhhhh.... You must have that _HYBRID_ bike I've heard so much about in the FJ Owner's forum. Our advice is to sell it for parts!!!

I decided to give irishluck a 7 day partial ban.  He can still login to this forum and view posts - but he just cannot post himself.  This will allow him some much needed time to re-read all of his threads for the answers to his problems.

i hope he watches this entire video..... he may actually be able to fix his wiring if he does.

you only need two things for the lights to work..... 12 volt power from the positive terminal on the battery and a good ground which eventually leads back to the negative terminal on the battery via the motorcycle chassis.

find out why you dont have one or the other and you will find your problem.

a multi meter and knowing how to use it is essential to this process

i promise this is the absolute LAST response Mr Luck will get from me on this subject.
