“Yamaha fjr ae 2006. I purchased this bike in 2010 with only 3500 miles on it. Riding with friends we were about to enter a major interstate highway in dallas, tx. Upon giving the bike throttle the engine suddenly lost all power at about 50 miles per hour. The speedometer and tachometer were jumping from zero to maximum several times. I almost lost control and other behind me almost crashed into me from behind. As I began to pull off the ramp out of the way of other traffic suddenly the bike restarted and regained power. It has not done this again. …”
