03 RX1 running like crap

[Sled Dog]

We checked all the wire issues mentioned and nothing was found. Except for the one bare spot on a wire on one of the relays. Fixed that yesterday. So for now, ill wait for some snow and take it for a ride and see what happens. Thanks for all your helpfull info guys and ill let you know the outcome.

Mine ran like crap also when I started it up this fall. I cleaned the carbs and it started right up and it ran fine. Problem solved. Wrong!! After a month it ran like crap again. Off came the carbs a 2nd time. This time I noticed 2 of the needle and seats were stuck. I cleaned and used a little WD 40 and put it all back together and it ran good again. A quick 100 MPH run down my road (Hayward WI has 3 inches of snow) and my headache was over for now.. Yea I ordered 4 new needle and seats from Yamaha and will put them in soon. Sometimes fuel and electrical problems act the same. I think I found my solution and I don't have to run down any shorts in the wiring, YET!!
