Consumer Description

THE BIKE STARTED SHUTTERING SO BAD, THE MIRRORS SHOOK LOOSE AND I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO CRASH. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP THE BIKE AND HAD IT TOWED BACK HOME. A MECHANIC LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THE CENTER DRIVELINE MAY POSSIBLY BE COMING LOOSE. THE BIKE SHAKES WHEN ANY TORQUE IS APPLIED TO THE MOTOR, AND IT'S COMING FROM UNDER THE RIDER SEAT. EXACTLY WHERE THE DRIVELINE IS HOUSED. YAMAHA MUST RECALL AND FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE THE REAR TIRE LOCKS UP WHILE RIDING. *TR
