Need help with Headlights : Yamaha R1 Forum

tfs32 · 01-27-2012, 01:38 PM

Since I am not running headlights, and my stock stator is putting off too much power, I need to add some resistors to where all my lights once were, I just need to know the Ohms for the head lights and tail light so I can splice in some resistors....I no longer have those parts otherwise I would do it my self

Thanks for ANY help!

Btw this is on a 09. Also, if you happen to have some broken headlights laying around and would like to sell me the connector for the harness, let me know.

Bump for some help! Please!

Bump for a little help please, I just need to know the resistance of the head lights!!!

The output of your stator is based on engine rpm, not the loads imposed by the system. The regualtor will short the stator out based on voltage levels. There is no need to run ballast resistors when you unplug your headlights.

you need to talk with Yamaha then, because they say otherwise

BTW each headlight is 50 ohms
