I managed to melt one of the wires out of the earth wires i think out of the ignition or starter relay not sure I walked out the garage now! I connected my ignition two way switch to term 85 on starter relay and term 85 on ignition relay. turned on nothing then if i put the term 85 on ignition relay to positive starter relay clicked where am I going wrong? I want to prime the ignition with 2 way switch and start her with savage start button.

this build log massively helped me during my build and a blown up copy of the yamaha service manual wiring diagram.

im not sure whats happened with your earth, but the r1 has a two pole ignition, you need to short 2 wires so you can use the sierra barrel.
the start switch is a dead simple wire which switches to ground.
hope that helps in some way

Are you running all the original R1 relays, what year, carbed or injection,
for start button on my 4xv I just extended the original black start button wire off start relay (the big one) and ran the other side to earth
