Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I purchased a used v-star motorcycle and, after only a few months of riding it, the piece that was used to secure my pedal shifter broke off. I was on a back road unable to shift into gear and had to push my bike off to the side of the road for safety. After I found the problem I realized that this very important piece is welded and not bolted on. I had to ride it home in second gear after another biker helped me pop it in gear. I talked with a Yamaha representative and they said the warranty is up so they are not responsible to fix the issue. …”
