For handling best stick to the standard size when you go wider it might look better but will handle worse as the wall of the tyre will have more movement

I don't think the trx motor would fit straight in as it has almost dummy second cylinder which contains the airbox, also think the trx motor might be even harder to find. Your best option is probably a dona tdm, keep a look out for one on eBay you should pick up a project or winter hack really cheap this time of year -
Something to look out for Grouch, I don't know if its still the case with the newer models but most Yams have a left hand thread on one side. You'll need to check if your bike has or hasn't before you consider aftermarket's also the thread size normally 8mm or 10mm.

Drain the carbs, I just run the motor till its stops with the fuel pipe disconnected. I also clean & grease the chain and spray the forks with WD40.

As Cynic said first check battery then the switch again and maybe the fuses

Think most of us have had days like this at some time. something when you know your better than this and still can't believe how stupid you've just been.

Nice erection Grouch get on to your landlord to sort it out.

Welcome back Unk, glad to see you haven't givin up on the xs, good luck with the project
-
Stick it on eBay free to take away
-
I agree Grouch I wouldn't try and take it down as you would have to climb up it to dismantle it and as you said it doesn't look safe, and the thought of you 30 ft in the air with tools doesn't bare thinking about, and these people who find it funny shame on you
