So currently with the help of you guy's on here you have helped me identify that i now own a 1990 'f2' my problem now is i have purchased a different set of switchgear some time ago not looking or realising there was a difference in compatability with my current loom/harness the switchgear purchased left side has 3 sets of plugs and the right side has 2 , loom has 1 black plug 9 wires and the right i must assume has 1 but it has been cut with a grafted Suzuki RG switchgear added , now removed...dont ask what is the best advice or options ? A.new loom and switchgear? B.change the switchgear to the f2 which it should be? C.have a go grafting on the 'whatever model ypvs' switchgear i now have? any help appreciated ZiG

F2 and 31k (there are 2 types of 31k) All operate the same so with new plugs they will work
The thing that may influence it is what handlebars and throttle cable you are using
A 29l lc2 throttle cable will have too much free play in f2 switchgear and a 1ua cable is not long enough to fit with normal bars

Throttle cable is NORBO's and bars inc front end is YZF R1 ZiG

If you are using clip ons you need to use a cable that was fitted to a bike with clip ons originally or it will be too long
Maybe the biggest issue is the 1ua cable is NLA and rare
Still some n1 and f1 cables kicking about

Is norbo's cable a 29l one
Check the length. If so it will need 31k switchgear unless you fit a small spacer at the twist grip end
I've done this twice
