Consumer Description

WHILE RIDING MY 2006 YAMAHA ROADLINER 1900,I NOTICED A KNOCK IN THIRD GEAR AS I WAS GOING SLOW. NEXT RIDE IT GOT LOUDER,AND A WHINING STARTED COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION MAINTENANCE WAS PERFORMED CORRECTLY SINCE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. THE KNOCK IS SO BAD I CAN'T RIDE IT, I HAVE HEARD OF MANY OTHERS WITH THIS PROBLEM, AT OR AROUND 20,000 MILES, MINE HAS 21,256.I HAVE CONTACTED YAMAHA FOR HELP, AND THEY SAID THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT SINCE ITS OUT OF WARRANTY . CAN YOU HELP ? I HEAR ITS A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX, AND YAMAHA HAS ALREADY CHANGED THE GEAR ON THE NEWER BIKES BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, SHOULDN'T THERE BE A RECALL ? THANK YOU . *TR
