    engine light

    Used to get this on my 6 when the regulator overheated. Went through 3 in a couple of hot summers when queuing. Engine light was on and off for a few weeks before the regulator completely gave up. But on the 6 it was under the seat right above the exhaust - I think that's why Yamaha have moved...

Looking at the wiring diagram, this is where it was...

    New FZ8 2013 Spec

    Here are some pics - I have the stock Yamaha FZ8 sports pack arriving next week so I'll post some more after it's installed (I'm in Spain and this is an option). Its LED Flashers, Tail Tidy & Akro Exhaust end can. Anyone help with the alarm install? - I know I could run the wires to the start...

    New FZ8 2013 Spec

    Hi, Just received my new Fazer (2013 spec). Did the dual headlight conversion at the weekend. I'm looking to fit a Steelmate 986 Alarm. Does anyone have wiring information on what wires are where - especially auto-start and immobiliser? Thanks, Paul.
