Consumer Description

I OWN A 2005 YAMAHA YZF-R1, AFTER 2500 MILES THE MOTOR WILL INTERMITTENTLY DROP TO AROUND 500RPM OR LOWER WHEN IDLING OR WHEN CLUTCH LEVER IS PULLED IN. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE MOTOR WILL DROP INTO A LUMPING AND THEN CUT OUT. IT ALSO OCCURS WHILE MOTORCYCLE IS IN MOTION. THE MOTOR WILL JERK AND LURCH WHEN YOU ENGAGE THE CLUTCH IT DIES. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND IS A REAL HAZARD. WHEN MOTORCYCLE IS IN DIAGNOSTIC MODE IT DETECTS A FAULT CODE FOR THE (TPS) THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR AND HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED ON HUNDREDS OF R1'S WORLDWIDE. HERE IS A LINK TO THE FORUM WHERE IT IS BEING DISCUSSED. HTTP://WWW.R1-FORUM.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?S=&THREADID=98831&PERPAGE=20&PAGENUMBER=1. *JB
