2006 Yamaha XV19 Electrical system Problems

“My 2006 Yamaha roadliner stalls almost every time I stop at a red light. It happens when I let up on the throttle and push in the clutch. My wife and I have almost been run over 20 or 30 times and almost turned the bike over many times because of this. I asked my Yamaha dealer to help me but they say there is no problem on the bike. It looks to me like the only way to fix this problem is to get rid of the bike and never buy another Yamaha.”

“The speedometer on my 2006 Yamaha stratoliner has always had problems, the gauges stop working on a regular basis but now the speedometer has started to work intermittently. I have found no recall but every roadliner/stratoliner owner I have talked to has the same problem.”

“Factory crimp connector inside my Yamaha driving lamps on my 2006 Yamaha stratoliner motorcycle. Melted causing the lights to fail at night. I am not the first to have this problem with the connector Yamaha used has melted. I have pictures of the melted connector taken when I opened the light housing thinking it was just a burnt out bulb.”

“The crank position sensor on my 2006 Yamaha xv1700 (warrior) began to fail. This caused erratic hesitation during acceleration to the point of becoming inoperable. Had it failed completely, my engine would have just died during operation, which could have very likely resulted in an accident.”

“Yamaha roadliner xv 1900 I have a 2006 Yamaha roadliner xv1900 on which the engine will die completely when coming to a stop frequently after pulling in the clutch. This has been happening since I first bought the bike back in november of 2006. In fact it happened the first day I drove it home but I thought I was out of gas and after filling up it did not occur for some time after. As the miles rolled up this problem would occur randomly when coming to a stop such as exiting a freeway or pulling up to a stoplight. …”
