Ok Here are the pieces to the Tunnel bag.

Bag 12 in McGuire soft tool bag. I picked up at Menards for $2.99


This is from Amazon same bag. www.amazon.com/McGuire-Nicholas-22312-Builders-Combination/dp/B00002N7XA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1277074412&sr=1-1

Then I picked up 1/2" Grommet Kit. Local hardware store $9.99


At Amazon
www.amazon.com/General-Tools-71264-12PC-Grommet/dp/B000T2SGLO

The straps I used.


The extra buckles for the other end of the straps.


Heavy Duty D-Rings bought at Local hardware store about $4.50

First I started by installing 1/2" grommets in 4 corners of bag about 1" in from ends and about 1/2" up from bottom of bag. Then mounted one end of the buckle on piece about 4" strap looped through one half of the buckle and secured to the tunnel with Heavy Duty D-Ring. This leaves you the ability to snug up the bag on each end. (Also the use of the D-Rings was not just for mounting the bag they were installed for when I am not using bag I can use them to strap items down across the Tunnel.) This also make the bag very easy to remove for fueling. I then ran the remaining strap through the 1/2" grommets in the bag and put the other end of the buckles on the ends. This bag gives you lots of extra room which is needed on the YY250T as the 244cc takes up so much under the seat there is very little room for storage. About the only thing I have under the seat is extra battery and tools.




When I take some better Pictures I will post some clearer pics and zoom in on the way the buckles are mounted.

Glad my wiring does not look like that. I pulled the fuse box all the way out to the side to check all the wiring and connections. I replaced ALL of the fuses. And soldered all of the crimp connections all the way to the fuse box. That is what does not make any sense to have a voltage drop that much from the Regulator back to the Battery. I have taken off all the grounds and reconnected. Made sure there was no rust under any of them.

Ok well I found the culprit to the cutting out issue but that did noting for the charging. Both plug to CDI were firm. I found the 2 wires coming from Stator the plug was very loose. I pulled the connectors out and tightened them up No more cutting out when moving wires around. But that did not change the charging issue.

I am at my whits end now. Man every time I take one step forward 2 steps back. Still NOT charging properly. I will ride for an hour and it will kill the battery enough that it will not start the scooter if I shut it off. Then the next time I can ride stop shut off and it starts right back up. Well today it was both. go figure. Had a full day of scooting planned while caching. Drove up to first cache about 40 min away. shut off scooter it would not start back up with out jumping it. I carry a battery with me just for this reason.

SO I was so ticked off I cut the day short told my dad sorry I have to get this dang thing chargeing. Came home put up on the lift and stripped to Frame again. took all the loom off the wires. All the connections that are wired hooked together and crimped I soldered. Still can not get the damn thing to put out over 12.83 volts at 5000 RPMs. I checked all the grounds loosened them up and re-tightened them down. I pulled the fuse panel out to the side of the scooter with the wires took it all apart. I replaced ALL of the fuses. Still nothing. Took all the wires apart put them back together same results.

Now comes something that is weird and I have a feeling is what is causing the problem but I can not find what is doing it. Ok through out this whole thing the scooter has ALWAYS ran great never given me any problems running. Well with the scooter running all the wires spread out and I move them something Kills the scooter it just quits. I just can NOT find the wire that is doing it. The wires I move are right in front of the regulator. I thought it was one of the ground wires but I started it back up and kept messing with it and would not do it again .

I would just love a stick of Dynamite right now. :-(

Ok will try again. Replaced the barrel fuse with a good spade fuse. Then was showing signs of not getting a decent ground back to the RR so ran a ground wire up to battery Now I am finally getting voltage that comes up when the rpms come up instead of going down. And the voltage is above the battery voltage when I start so I am hopeing that means it is going to charge now.

Ok It blew the fuse that goes to the solenoid once. Could be be that junky fuse holder giving me the charging problem?
