Have been having an intermittent headlamp problem for a little while now. Took to Yam dealer Friday to try and get it fixed under warranty only to be told that they have had a recall notice in the last few days to fit the new improved harness to all super Tens and R1.

Brilliant. Mine went 2 weeks ago on the final day of a trip to the Americas whist driving into Buenos Aires after a 40k mile trip. Wohoo

Re: Super Tenere recall UK

Hmm, I will have to ask my dealer about getting it done the same time as the first service

So...it finally happened. I just got my letter to announce the recall for the headlight harness in UK. My advice to you all would be book the job in soon because they are recalling R1's as well which might keep them busy!!

I've got a letter as well so need to contact the dealer some time next week. Has anybody got an idea of how long it takes to replace the harness?

GOOD ON YA YAMAHA ...there not afraid to call a recall to get things sorted out .....unlike them PRATS at BMW who are that frightened to hear that word RECALL that they call them TECHNICAL CAMPAIGNS...... ::015::

I got the letter today too. So also a recall in Holland. As I understood from the Dutch forum it's the same for Belgium and Germany.
My dealer is expecting the harness tomorrow. I removed the headlight unit today and will bring it to the dealer tomorrow. Before the weekend everything should be fixed and ready to go. ::018::

My dealer didnt know how long the job will take coz they havent done one yet.
Yamaha allots the dealer 0.6 hours labor (sorry, labour) for the warranty work. That means it would take me 1.2 hours...
