I disagree, it is not the nature of the beast. If it was like mine it is going to get worse, so bad that you will need a new clutch and then you have to fight with Yamaha to cover it under warranty. Mine is a 06 and it appears Yamaha has not fixed a damn thing other wise you would not be...

To me it is not a serious issue Bram just an interesting issue. When I read the other posts I thought I would check it out on my bike, 99.99 % of the time both hands are on my handle bars. I never noticed this when I took my hands off the handlebars before I added the top box. I did the test and...

I have also installed the Givi 52 and I also let go of the handle bars to adjust my gloves and I had the same thing happen to me. I did not have time to adjust the gloves because it was slapping side to side. I never had this problem without the top box, I can ride with one hand with the box on...

I finally found a place that ships and the price is right. Sport Tour, Ltd. 11386 Reading Rd. Sharonville, OH 45241 Saved $150.00 dollars including the shipping compared to quotes I had from Canadian dealers $504.00 My Road Pilot 2 front & rear for $303.00 and they are being shipped Monday...

Good Day everyone I am in need of tires and I want to purchase them from the US because they are way cheaper than in Canada. However when I call they say they don't ship to Canada, If anyone has any information on which companies ship tires to Canada could you please reply. I have not had good...

Man do I feel for ya, Yamaha has to be taken to task. I to had a similar story but with my clutch on my new 2006 FJR, Yamaha Canada would not believe it was a factory defect or problem. The dealer told them over and over that it was a problem from the factory but the rep would not listen even...

Yes they soaked the plates and they put in Yamalube which I will run until the next oil change. The mechanic told and showed the Area rep the clutch plates and told him that they were dry from day one but the area rep could care less. I will upate in the spring. Take care

I have the bike back from dealer today, had to trailer it home which the dealer did for me. Anyways I started the bike up in the garage and the bike was cold. It was -15 today I pulled the clutch in and put the bike into first gear and I was amazed how smooth the clutch was. It fell into first...

I am in the same boat as you Zolton we have snow now so I wont be able to test drive it until spring. Yamaha said they would trailer my bike home for me. I still can't believe that Yamaha Canada don't have clutch plates in stock that they have to have them dropped shipped from Japan.

I am the original owner, my bikes clutch was sticking from day one. I told the dealer numerous times and I took it in and they told me that there was nothing wrong and Yamaha Canada would not authorize a clutch take down. The problem continued with the clutch not engaging when trying to down...

What would you think? Originally they said they ordered the clutch plates and told me my bike would be ready for pick up on Wed. I take the day off to go pick it up and then they tell me it was not ready that they were short one clutch plate. I complained to the General manager and he tells me...
