No, I don’t believe so. The issue here (I think…someone will correct me if this isn’t accurate) is that your math of 3.3A draw is based on continuous running of the lights. It doesn’t take into account what the start-up current requirement will be to fire the lights initially. 

You CAN use the connector behind the screen (which is fused for 2A IIRC) to fire the relay which will then provide battery power to your lamps. Just make sure to wire into the switched power connector and remember that Yamaha doesn’t always power certain circuits until the engine is actually running.

Thanks for your reply & advice. I will wire in via a relay to play it safe.

I bought a 900GT new in June 2018 that had to have warped rotors replaced under warranty. And here we are 4 years later with the same problem. I know they make bikes down to a price but come on Yamaha. Don’t scrimp on something designed to save your life! I strongly suggest you don’t take no for an answer when you take it back to the 

Just to update my last posting. Dealer sent me new disc & pads fitted them & the brakes are now fine. Just hope it stays that way

Hi All

I am in the process of fitting 2 x 20watt flood lights to my trader 900gt 2020. I intend to have them on all the time when the ignition is switched only ( using them as DRL's). I was going to wire them via a relay that was supplied with the kit but to save alot of work runing cables can I just wire in straight from the light fittings directly into the auxiliary plug behind the screen?.

The lights have a combined current rating of 3.3 amps. (This is based on 2 x 20 watts = 40watts ÷ 12 volts = 3.3amps). My question is can the circuit supplying the grey aux plug behind the screen adequate for this current rating?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

Just wanted to update with the latest issue I've been experiencing with my T9.  I have been noticing a "lunging" on the bike when coming to a gradual stop while applying a light front brake.  I had the dealer check it while performing my ECU reflash from the recall.  They found both front rotors warped.  New rotors have been ordered.  I hate to be so negative but this bike has been nothing but a PITA since the first week of ownership.  Hopefully once the rotors are replaced this will be it for a while as far as problems go.

I picked up my bike last saturday (collected in my van) took it out for the first ride today & have exactly the problem with the pulsating effect when applying the front brake at low speed when coming to a stop. Real shame because everything else about the bike was fantastic. Surprised though that the bike had just been serviced by the shop & thought they would have picked this fault up on a test ride after the service. Will be contacting the shop in morning to see what they are going to do about it as it is still in its 2 year yamaha warranty period. Registered nov 2020.
