Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: In september of 2004 at approximately 5000 miles, the motorcycle began idling poorly and stalling. had to turn off the key and then back on before it would start again. yamaha replaced the throttle position sensor after bringing it to them twice which corrected the problem. i have almost 13000 miles on it now and it is doing the same thing again. it is a safety issue because it is distracting and hinders my ability to watch traffic and frequently stalls at traffic lights.
