[QUOTE="fjrthree, post: 684002, member: 17419"] Took my `08 in for the 12000 mile service and complained of poor shifting and getting stuck in neutral from take off (when shifting from 1st to 2nd, would get stuck in neutral and unable to shift without pulling over. Yamaha covered the repair under the extended warranty and the service guy soaked the plates while they were out. Shifts smooth now. Now a new problem, my bike doesn`t sound right to me. Can`t put into words but the sound is different when accelerating through gears. Idles fine and casual driving speed seem ok but when you want to race it, it just sounds different and not as strong. I ride daily and whenever I`ve gotten the bike back from service before, it`s run great. This time somethings up. I did take her back to have it checked out and they did the thottle body sync which made her run better but the sound is still not right. I know nothing about engines, which is why I do the service through the dealer. Thought maybe something up with the air filter but they say it`s ok. Has anyone had this problem before? [/QUOTE]
