Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The rear cylinder valves are sticking open when my 2005 yamaha roadstar is warming up. it happens very unexpectedly and without warning causing a loss of power. this loss of power has left me sitting along a very busy highway with a narrow shoulder as well as almost caused me to drop the bike during a left hand turn in front of oncoming traffic. i spoke with the local dealership but they claimed to never heard of such a problem while it is widely known among roadstar riders that it is a common problem. it is just a matter of time before someone is injured by this. *jb
