    The recall in the wiring harness for he 2002 to 2005 models has been around for quite a while. You mentioned the "new" recall...is there a second one, or did you just never have the first one done?

    I seem to recall a few posts/threads over the years where people reported seeing faint amounts of smoke.

    This was from a local gathering of VFRs where the guys didn't replace their R/R or do the wiring harness recall.
