If the CDI is bad and recalled because of the issue with the TORS activating, what else is the CDI supposed to do that it is not doing correctly? My wife has a 2005 RS Vector that we bought and paid for 1-1/2 years ago. I broke my leg first day out last year so we only rode 97 miles. Her TORS is activating but with all the snow, I do not want it in the shop to miss riding. I have an appointment for tomorrow so hpopefully someone will give me some input.
Thanks
John

Well if you have an appointment to get it fixed you won't have to worry about it. If for some reason they don't have the parts to fix it, you can ride it with the tors unhooked.

It is in the shop. It is getting a new CDI, TORS unit(whatever that is) and the clutch o rings. They are going to put thinner washers on the secondary for me since it is in there. We are riders in western New York where they are getting hammered with snow so we need it by the weekend. I will have it Thursday. I have a great dealer and ride with one of the guys when I can.

I've had TORS bypassed since 2005 with zero issues. I even got the new CDI box and never undid the bypass. TORS is a Japanese overthought "POKA-YOKE" (Error-proofing in their culture) to prevent a mishap. But let's face it, if your carbs are icing up to the point that they will stick at WOT, you will feel them getting tight as you work the throttle before that actually happens. The TORS kicking in at unexpected times almost got me into many accidents, so I feel safer with it bypassed.
tors on the wifes sleds been disconnected from the first time it acted up. If I truely felt it was a safety issue it would be functional. i haven't had a sled with it really working properly yet going back to the srv days
i've had mine bypassed since around the 2900mi marker..and i currently have around 7300 mi on my 05 rage

I unhooked mine last week. I think I will just keep it that way. It's suppose to be a safety feature that about made me have a serious crash when the TORS activated for no reason. Go figure

Update on Wife's Vector
They called last night which was Thursday night as my dealer said they would. Man, they are a great dealer. Secondary spacers, primary bushings and CDI box. Yamaha paid everything because of recalls and bulletins. They said it runs great. I am picking it up at 3 and we are headed to Chautauqua Lake New York. Great riding to be had this weekend. We hope!!!

Runs Great
We picked up the my wife's Vector and rode a couple hundred miles over the weekend. The sled runs great now. The problem with the CDI was a bad program right from the factory. They replaced it and should have no more problems. It runs great.
