HarryH Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 My "new to me", 'custom painted' (sprayed purple :-( ) 1987 Fz-700 is in desperate need of a signal relay (41R-71). I understand that several models from the era had this relay, but I'm finding it nearly impossible to locate a seller. Would any of you have a clue as to what company might carry these relays (used or new)? I found a company that has them, but they want 102 US dollars (I'm in the US)!

You should be able to fit almost anything with the same pins and loading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where would I get the "almost anything" to fit into it? I'm at college in a small town, so I have to order most my stuff online anyways. Would a regular auto parts store have one of the same loading?

As for any auto store, probably, as it does the same job in a car. Take it in and do a comparison. Just make sure the wattage is OK. Good luck.

The problem is that the FZ700 uses a 6 or 8 pin connector and a square, rectangular relay, not the usual cylindrical one. I guess I'll have to 'customize' the wiring to save money on this one.

Ferg Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 G,day. I believe the relay you are talking about also includes the relay for the starting system.It has the same part number as the one for my fj1100.Maybe if you had a wiring diagram you could seperate the two. The following link is to a parts warehouse and it shows all the models that use that relay. http://yamaha.partswarehouse.com/pages/parts/default.aspx Just type in the part number (41r-83350-71) in the quick find section . Hope this helps. Cheers Ferg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if I can just find a broken one of any of those Yamaha's at a salvage yard or something, I can snag the part cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
