This thread has been changed from the OP , there is as yet NO derestricting chip for the Yamaha Branded x-2 motors.
The later part of the discussion started by Drift is ONLY about the new Yamaha Branded X-3 motor. The chip isn't backwards compatible as far as I know.
cheers 😎
Your absolutely correct , the amount of settings really makes the bike tricked out personally like a factory rider.
I'm also a well seasoned with Yamaha and Honda motorcycle in every form and their products. I'm glad to see the top Motorcycle Companies finally getting serious....
Welcome to the forum Drift , I am as excited as anyone to get this installed !
It's absolutely brilliant, please keep us updated.

I agree, it’s a PITA to constantly turn the unit on every time the bike is turned off. It would be better if a code was used just to disengage it rather than the other way around. Retaining the settings even on power off would be way more convenient.
This sure looks like a modified Planet3 set up. The only real downside of a mechanical de-restrictor is the improper displayed speed and distance. I prefer an electronic dongle that keeps everything correct. Nice non original idea though.
Even though the wire connectors are stuffed up the seat tube, I would think a waterproof/resistant connector would be advisable, I’m not sure if ethernet connectors are available that way. Plus if you’re doing any cutting off of connectors your on your own when it comes to any kind of warranty...
No worries at all, I considered cutting the connector route but without knowing exactly what wire does what I didn’t want to risk blowing a component. Plus finding the exact ones needed can be extremely difficult. I searched the entire net for suppliers and they all were sold out with no known...
Brian there is No current manufacturer making anything that will fit the Yamaha branded Moro. Even though Yamaha sells its motor to other brands. When Yamaha use’s it’s motor in Their bikes they change the connectors. I have gone through this issue with a number of companies that make modules...
Look what the courier just dropped off , YES ! Right connectors and all, I can hardly wait 😬
Plus if anyone else is considering ordering from these guys you can use the discount card at the bottom left of the pic and get $£10 off on your order. Pretty sweet 👍
Update on Speed Fun connectors. I have been talking to SF about this issue and they informed me that the proper connectors are not available until the fall sometimes, apparently it’s the same old story, world wide shortage. So they substituted the originals with these larger ones. They are...
Well I finally got around to installing the Speed Fun and I’m not impressed with their huge connectors. The male one that goes into the original speed sensor position is really Huge compared to the original. I am Very concerned about how much it sticks out, the wires have to be bent 90 degrees...
