[QUOTE="orestes, post: 165652, member: 498"] "..... a potential defect has been indentified with your machine's throttle position sensor (TPS), whereby under certain circumstances, the idle speed of the engine may become intermittently unstable. In rare cases, this may result in the engine stalling where the machine is stationary or even in certain circumstances, when travelling at low speeds and in the extreme, with the potential for the loss of full control of the machine. For safety reasons therefore, we would like to advise to contact your authorised Yamaha dealer...... to arrange for them to inspect the TPS and if neccessary fit a revised part.....This will of course be carried out free of charge..." My bike has not shown any of the stated symptoms in 24000 miles but my dealer is replacing the TPS anyway. They have not advised that it is unsafe to ride the bike. The numbers quoted on other posts seem to refer to N American bikes only but this recall does seem to be world wide USA,Canad, Australia and the UK so far. It will probably not be to long before the rest of Europe catches up. Dave [/QUOTE]
