Hey everyone I thought that I would revive this old thread with some new insight. I am always searching Ebay for new stuff for the X4. Earlier this summer I had come across seat belt bypass connectors for the Gen 1 Wolverine and the YXZ1000 ( it is the same connector for both ). But none for the X4/X2. Finally after opening the X4 up to do the clutch weights I realized there is a connector just under the plastics where the driver seat belt comes through which looked just likes the ones I have seen several times so I went ahead and picked one for the YXZ up. It was under $8 and worked perfectly. Plug and play. Bless Yamaha for keeping many things the same on their different models. So if anyone wants a simple solution to the seat belt alarm and speed limiter here you go.
I do when driving on the road or trails but I have a long driveway/road and have to open/close my gate where the buzzer/speed limiter can be a PITA. It also sucks when snow plowing and I have to get in/out to angle the blade.
I did the same , I just had a friend recently who didn’t wear one , he rolled by mistake avoiding a deer , his injuries were very very significant to arm, shoulder and has missed x 6 months of work and sold his bike due to injury and pay loss
I am like massive to be honest , plowing and moving around the garage etc , thx for your post
Hey Guys ..I have a 2019 X2...Literally bought it yesterday.....took the clip off just like in the pics and took it for a spin......still cutting out around 22 miles an hour....Any Ideas.....Thanks
Is it switched to turtle mode? And did you warm it up until the blue temp light went out before trying to go fast? Once it warms up the engine has to return to idle so the speed limiter disengages.
I removed seatbelt sensor & test drove it but didn't know about warmup before being able to go fast.....just purchased Saturday afternoon. ....I'm gonna try it again tomorrow. ....thanks
Excellent, I presume Yamaha decided to implement this on that engine to keep those people who only drive pedal to the metal taking off hard after starting it up. It takes time to really warm up even mine. I believe someone said there is built in temp gauge as well. So having it on to display temp as a default will inform you what temp its at.
Sorry in advance for a double post as i joined and started a thread as i couldnt find this exact post once i joined. my 2020 X2 sealtbelt light wont go off all of a sudden "while belted in" after removing the plastic cover i noticed " no screws" like in your pictures to remove the metal plate exposing the magnet. For the life of me i cant figure out how to remove and access the magnet to remove? Any advice would be great. Thanks!!
I just got a seat belt bypass plug off amazon for my 2020 x2. Its kinda a pain to install. Seat comes out, some plastic pieces and then i just plugged it in, taped it up, and put it back together. Works great and no ear piercing alarm at 11 mph anymore.
Wolvymanx4, Do you by chance have the part number for your seatbelt bypass, I can’t seem to find it. I don’t mind putting the jumper in but I don’t like to splice if I don’t have to. “BUT I WILL IF I HAVE TO.”
Why use the bypass plug when it looks like all it does is connect the two wires so they are always connected. Couldn't you just cut the wires and connect them with a butt connector.
So what is the trick to open up the seat belt? Mine isn't screwed together and it is a really tight fit to split apart?
