| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I recently purchase a 2007 yamaha yzf r-1. understandings it is the first year yahmaha uses this technology on the r1s was a concern. but i bought it anyway. my fears came true when merging onto freeway. the bike has a dangerous throttle lag in 2nd gear at 5500rpms (45mph). this is an unsafe situation on any vehicle but esp a 2 wheel motorcycle. apparently there is no fix for the problem and yamaha is not planning a recall despite knowing of the hazardous position it has placed its customers in. *tr |
