Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was riding my 2005 yamaha roadstar warrior motorcycle from my home in the dfw area to hill country. approximately 100 miles into the trip my bike would cutout every now and again, almost like someone was pushing the kill switch on the motorcycle. if i pulled in the clutch the bike would come back to an idle and it would be fine, i could continue on riding. it proceeded to do this the entire weekend until i could get home and repair it. once i got home i found out that both the tabs that hold on my cps (crank position sensor) had broken off. just as they have done on many, many other warrior owners that i have talked to. i ordered a replacement sensor and as soon as it gets shipped to me, i will be replacing it and hoping that it does not fail again. yes, the old part will be available if need be. *nm
