Springy Thingy

[user 5302]

This is probably an old question but would someone please fill me in on the purpose of the spring that hangs down from the oil pan? I've done some searches and can't find any info other than my Clymers manual referring to it as a "wire bracket." It isn't on any of the parts diagrams online that I've seen.

It is for the coolant overflow tube.

Its a pig tail curb feeler, you will hear it drag with big ladies on the back indicating that they should get off. Its yamaha's way of looking out for the image of the bike.
