“Complained to Yamaha dealer of whine/howl on my 2005 royal star venture. Kept for 52 days out-of-service, when returned discovered that the final drive had lost almost all its fluid, could have caused catastrophic failure, injury/death. Dealer prudently removed whine/howl from my signed work order !”
