This was his exact response to me..
What parts were changed on the handwarmers for 2010, so I can change them on my 09 XTX. I really think they should do something for the 09’s, since I had to suffer since 06 on my Apex.
It is not a feasible modification as it requires a new igniter /E controller which is big $$$. The device which is available aftermarket on Totallyamaha from Rockmeister appears to do a very good job of redirecting current at lower RPM for those that require more output. And the cost is quite reasonable compared to the factory options. I understand your thoughts on the issue but I can’t comment beyond acknowledgment and saying we have explored the subject at length within service and engineering, sorry SF, best I can offer, Cheers cr
And on another post from agentzoey
I know Yamaha is supposedly going to fix hand warmers for 2010, but are they going to do anything for the 2009 models…
There is no update forthcoming for 09 (or prior) models, the new system would require extensive component changes to be functional including the ECU
Just because the part has changed, does not mean it's not different.
