yes, they are are quite decently produced, a good balance considering they are not expensive, I didn't want a "superbling" part, just something functional (as you say) and more racing than the oem rearsets

I had to spend some time sorting out the electricity, oil hoses and control cables. I also started to investigate why the YPVS didn´t work (PV where mechanically perfect and clean once the engine was refreshed, but even before I opened it up I already saw the problem was not mechanical, the PV were not cycling when switching on the bike).

After checking some resistance values with a multimeter and asking my buddy his PV controller and servo, I discover the problem was much, much obvious, it was actually here

Image

The problem was in the fuse box, the small flexible fuse connectors/retainers were totally overcooked after 25 years of life, just removing one fuse the connectors disintegrated and the electrical connection was not really happening...

Ebay again and got one of this

I use those eBay fusebox replacements as well. They are so accurate the lid fits from the old one as well. If they last another 25 years, I'll never know.... or at least won't care then.... :smt005

Yes, you are right, if you have the old one and whant it still with the yamaha brand...

You are right, it is very difficult that I keep riding in 25 years, but not impossible.

Look at these guys:
