Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Failure of manufacturer Yamaha motorcycle(star brand) to balance the tires/rims of their motorcycles prior to sale. This leads to handling issues and premature tire wear and replacement. I had a low speed wobble from the day of delivery 1 april '07 until I had the rear tire replaced and balanced 5 august '08. I then began to look at star mc'c and cannot find any on the show room floors that have any weights or signs that any attempt to balance the rims/tire of this brand have been made. Many folks on the roadstar riders forum are having issues with early tire wear and front end wobble. …”
