I AM POSTING THIS COMPLAINT IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANOTHER POSTED ABOUT THE YAMAHA R6 MOTORCYCLE. MINE WAS A 2003 AND I BELIEVE MOST OF THE ISSUES ARE WITH THIS YEAR. THE BIKE SHUT OFF WHILE RIDING WHEN PULLING IN THE CLUTCH OR LETTING THE RPM'S DIP LOW WHEN COMING TO A STOP - BELOW ABOUT 2500. BIKE SHOULD HAVE IDLED EASILY AROUND 1500. IT WAS IN THE SHOP 3 TIMES AND NO DEALER COULD FIGURE IT OUT. WE CALLED YAMAHA AND THEY SAID THEY'D NEVER HEARD OF IT . NOT TRUE. PLEASE SEE THIS WEBSITE: HTTP://WWW.R6MESSAGENET.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=30990&HIGHLIGHT=NHTSA AND HTTP://WWW.R6MESSAGENET.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=1513&HIGHLIGHT=NHTSA FOR DETAILS ON MANY OTHER RIDERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM - AND YAMAHA DENIES THEY EVER HEARD OF IT. MANY OTHERS HAVE CALLED THEM WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND SOMEBODY IS GOING TO GET KILLED. I FINALLY TRADED IT IN BECAUSE IT IS NOT SAFE. IT...
