| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have a yamaha motorcycle that i purchased in march of this year that exhibits a serious problem with the fuel injection system. i have contacted the dealer where i purchased the motorcycle and they took no action. i have contacted yamaha directly. the product specialist i spoke with in cypress, ca advised that they were aware of the problem, but would not offer any details about how yamaha plans to correct the issue. the product specialist further advised that a service bulletin would be issued to dealers and letters would be mailed to customers within two weeks to one month, however, i have discovered that other owners were told the same thing many weeks ago. this is a serious problem that causes the motorcycle to be severely under powered whenever it is operated at high altitudes. the first time that it occurred i thought that i was running low on fuel, however, this was not the case and the motorcycle will exhibit these symptoms any time that high altitude roads are encountered. this is especially troubling and frightening when it occurs while negotiating corners or stop-and-go traffic situations. i am including a link to further information: http://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=23179 thanks in advance for looking into this matter. the date that i am entering below is the most recent incidence.*jb |
