Hey StreetRodAz! I really enjoy videos so thank you for making them!! I recently added the radiator grill and changing all the lights is next on my list. Is the adapter for the license plate light the same as for the blinkers?

Hi Carlos. Actually, I ended up cutting the factory license plate wire off the old fender and soldered it to the license plate wires.

Are you going to be doing a fork gaitor and cover install? Jvb boots look the best but I can't find any install videos on it. Love the vids man

No. I'll be putting an R6 front end on this in the next few months so gaitors will be a waste of time. Appreciate your support brother. More vids to come. Ride safe.

Great video! Do the stock indicators work with this tail tidy or should I just purchase new leds? I have the same tail tidy but am yet to attempt the installation. What else will I need?

No because the XSR doesn’t have a rear running lights. I have another video where I show how to preserve the front running lights though with new front turn signals. Check out the list of my videos for that. It will show you what part to get for running lights, and it will even work if you want to add rear running lights to your bike. Thanks for watching brother. Good luck with your mods. Ride safe.

Thanks for the video. I bought the same tail tidy kit and used your video for the installation. I’m going to harvest the oem license plate wire. My question is did you connect black with black and yellow with blue? I did this and it blew the 10 amp fuse.

Do you do anything with the hole where the cables go through? Just leave it or is there a mudguard available?

Hey StreetRodzAz, thanks for the simple instructions. But could you include what other electrical parts you needed and how you put it together. You went from looking for a washer to attach the other indictor to jumping 90% of the wiring done. Thanks

Sure thing. So in addition to the BL6 turn signals, you’re going to need these tstindustries.com/tst-yamaha-signal-plug-converters-3-to-3.html That way you won’t have to do any cutting of the factory wires

Indicator bolt? not sure what that is. Indicators are typically threaded on the shaft so you don't really need a bolt. Just a washer and a nut.

Do you notice any vibration on high speeds from the front of the bike? Seems like that is a common problem for XSR 700

@StreetRodAZ

Nope. But my other bike has inverted forks so I do notice some difference but not vibration. Inverted forks just rebound better. Which is also why I will be swapping out the stock front end for an R6 front end in a couple months.

Great video and channel btw! Looks to me like the only way to get the license plate light is to as you said splice and solder that wire. The only adapters I can find are Europe based that come out to over $100 US with shipping. Gonna give the solder a shot!
