TODAY I WENT TOO COLLECT THE BIKE AND AT A GLANCE IT LOOKED OK BUT WHEN I GOT IT HOME AND LOOKED AT IT A LITTLE CLOSER,I M THINKING I MAY HAVE BITTEN A LIITLE MORE THAN I CAN CHEW,SO IF ANY OF U GUYS CAN HELP IT WOULD BE MOST ARECIATED (AND U WOULD BE SAVEING ME A LOAD OF EAR ACHE). SO FAR IVE BROUGHT A FUEL TANK AS THE OLD ONE WAS ROTTEN,AND A NEW BATTERY THIS IS MY FIRST PROBLEM THE BATTERY HAS TWO WIRES AS IT SHOULD BUT THERE IS ONLY ONE WIRE I CAN SEE IN THE BOX TO CONNECT IT TOO (IT HAS A FUSE ON IT)DOES ANY ONE NO WHERE THE OTHER ONE GOES. ALSO THE BIKE HASENT BEEN STARTED FOR NEARLY TEN YEARS AND IM TOLD IM GONNA HAVE TO REBUILD THE CARB,IS THIS EASY AND IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD DO BEFORE I TRY STARTING IT UP. I TOOK THE PLUG OUT THIS AFTERNOON AND IT HAS A SPARK AND COMPRESSION. PLEASE IF U NO ANYTHING ABOUT THE YAMAHA RXS 100 AND U CAN GIVE ME ANY ADVICE BEFORE IVE PULLED ALL MY HAIR OUT LOL,I WOULD LOVE TO HERE FROM U.

Simon, stop SHOUTING! I know some of us are older and of a more mature nature, but we are not deaf! Netiquette dictates if your shouting (ie wrting in uppercase) your angry and upset!

Moderator Airhead Posted January 30, 2011 Moderator Share Posted January 30, 2011 There will be a wiring diagram in the manual, I would guess though that the battery negative terminal (have you got a black wire on it) connects to black in the loom somewhere nearby. I think you are right and you have bitten off a lot, hope mrs bidders is a patient sort but you will learn a lot of useful stuff meanwhile ...Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
