The temporary repair to the rectifier wiring managed to get me through another 1500km in Morocco but it gave out just as I got onto the boat at Tanger. The bike's in a dealer in Algeciras who says it needs a new rectifier. Yamaha have agreed it's a warranty job and it's going to take 10-12 days to do, so I'm flying back to the UK and will come back later for the bike.

We agreed on the rectifier part number (4XY-81960-00) from the PDF parts manual. But looking at the attached pics it's clear it also needs a new socket which isn't listed.

Does this mean a whole new wiring loom?
