Example complaints
Transmission and drivetrain: “I was riding home from college and I down shifted from 4th gear to third and heard a noise and the bike stalled. I was able to get it into neutral and it started back up again however if I shift into third it makes a horrible tapping noise. So, I have been riding the bike without using 3rd gear. I am a disabled veteran who lives on very little vet benefits which do not allow for me to pay for a top end rebuild which is required to change the gear. …”
NHTSA complaint #11325198, filed 2020-05, 45,000 milesFuel system: “Almost died today. My bike stalled for the 17th time and as I stalled, I stopped hard because of the jolt of the stall and my bad back couldn't handle the weight being off balance so I had to lay the bike down. As I was falling to the ground, another car locked up her brakes to avoid killing me in the lane to the left. The bike routinely stalls when coming to a stop and I am hoping the Yamaha corp will do the honorable thing and fix this before someone does get killed. I refuse to ride anymore and will not sell the death trap to anyone else. …”
NHTSA complaint #10779971, filed 2015-10, 31,000 milesElectrical system: “When I turned on the key my speedometer and other instruments cycles from zero to maximum back to zero one time. Periodically, one of my indicators (usually the speedometer) does not cycle and then does not work during the vehicle operation. This has been going on for several years, but is becoming more frequent. I remove the instrument panel to check the wiring for shorts and did not readily detect any though I did notice the wiring harness is very tight just in front of the fuel tank -- I'm sure vibration from vehicle operation puts stress on those connectors. …”
