3M automotive emblem and molding tape. Available at most auto parts stores.

Thanks for the link. I am looking for the actual fixture/bucket itself.

Does anyone have any leads for the 4-1/2" factory passing lights or aftermarket ones that are metric thread and mount the same way? Even just the buckets?

Here are small weatherproof voltmeters that I have found on ebay and/or Amazon. On my Venture, I used one that is more of a box shape and used doubled faced molding tape to attach it to the underside of the dash and put a plug on it to plug into the cigar lighter. I plan to wire it direct the next time that I have the fairing apart. The second picture is one I have found since that is more of a flat design. I like Woody's solution as well.

Hence another reason to put a voltmeter on the bike. I did years ago as I have heard stories of the regulator failing while riding and leaving riders stranded. With a volt meter you can see if something is not right.

Do a search on here. Someone rebuilds them and describes how to do it youself if you are able.

I will make plans to get it by the end of October if you can hold it that long. It someone else needs it more than me, let them have it. I'll PM you for direct contact information.

I have interest, just not sure when I could pick it up.

Here are the pics.

I mounted mine onto the left side air box just behind the lower fairing.

I check in on the second gen threads several times a week. Still riding and enjoying my '99 RSV when I have time.

I can punch new "Factory-like" keys for these motorcycles with or without the keycode. I have all the information in the Classifieds section. Or contact me for more information. I acquired the tools and supplies to make these after having the same issue with my key turning.

I can punch new keys that are a factory-like punched key(s) for your 1st or 2nd Generation Venture and RSTD. 　 Send me your key code, key or even a worn key for me to get a reading from and then I can set my cutter to "punch" the key rather than grind it like most everyone does. This "punching" method is the same method used to make the original key.　 If you don't have a key code or an extra key to send me, send me a good quality close up picture of your key; I have had good success with that. For those that have 2 keys for their bike locks, I can punch 1 key to fit all of your locks. You simply have to insert the key the correct way into which lock you are using. This works for all second gen and RSTD; first gen depends on if the key blanks are the same as there are 6 different blanks to fit the older Yamahas. 　 Yamaha Key Price Menu 1st Generation 1983-93 1st key punched (flat metal) $20 includes shipping to you Additional keys on same order $10 each, no additional shipping cost Punching a key blank that you send to me $5 each plus one $5 charge for shipping back to you.　 2nd Generation 1999-2013 RSV & 2005 - Present RSTD 1st key punched (flat metal) $18 includes shipping to you Additional flat metal keys cut on same order $8 each, no additional shipping cost 1st key punched (black plastic knock-off) $20 includes shipping to you Additional black plastic knock-off keys cut on same order $10 each, no additional shipping cost 1st key punched - genuine Yamaha black plastic and the newer style black, red, or blue, $22 includes shipping to you Additional genuine Yamaha black plastic cut on same order $12 each, no additional shipping cost Punching a key blank that you send to me $5 each plus one $5 charge for shipping back to you.
