Consumer Description

THE MOTORCYCLE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT NOTICE WILL LOSE POWER DUE TO VALVES STICKING AND CAUSING BIKE TO RUN ON ONLY 1 CYLINDER. IT HAPPENS ON A REGULAR BASIS. THERE HAS BEEN NOTHING DONE TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM BECAUSE YAMAHA TRIES TO LAY BLAME ON THE OWNERS OF THE BIKES. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THIS IS HAPPENING TO HUNDREDS MAYBE EVEN THOUSANDS OF BIKES! *TR
