Most Recent Complaints
While shifting into and out of 3rd gear it began to clunk and now is almost useless. Yamaha is aware that they had a defective gears and replaced the gears with a new kit part number. They refuse to replace the parts and do the repair at their cost well knowing it is a manufacturing defect and can cause serious damage to the motor and transmission This motorcycle only has 13000 miles and the transmission is to the point of being dangerous to ride, if even ridable at all. Their are so many reports of this same issue, Yamaha should recall these motorcycles and repair this manufacturing defect their cost before someone gets killed.
Motorcycle just stops/ shuts off for no reason. Have stalled at red lights and on highway. Then very hard to start. Have spent thousands at dealer to fix, still not fixed.
I WAS RIDING HOME FROM COLLEGE AND I DOWN SHIFTED FROM 4TH GEAR TO THIRD AND HEARD A NOISE AND THE BIKE STALLED. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT INTO NEUTRAL AND IT STARTED BACK UP AGAIN HOWEVER IF I SHIFT INTO THIRD IT MAKES A HORRIBLE TAPPING NOISE. SO, I HAVE BEEN RIDING THE BIKE WITHOUT USING 3RD GEAR. I AM A DISABLED VETERAN WHO LIVES ON VERY LITTLE VET BENEFITS WHICH DO NOT ALLOW FOR ME TO PAY FOR A TOP END REBUILD WHICH IS REQUIRED TO CHANGE THE GEAR. NOR CAN I PAY FOR YAMAHAS NEW THIRD GEAR ( WHICH IS NOT THE SAME PART OR PART # THAT THE BIKE WAS ORIGINALLY BUILT WITH ) THAT THEY CAME UP WITH TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR
3RD GEAR MAKES A LOT OF NOISE EVEN IN IDLE. PEOPLE ON LINE SAY IT'S A DEFECTIVE GEAR PIN THAT YAMAHA KNOWS ABOUT BUT WON'T RECALL.
