[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 1435531, member: 434"] This seems hyperbolic and wouldn't presume that. Try reading the actual recall. I did and design issue did not seem likely to me. It seemed more likely a part supplier issue of a cast vs. forged part. Still an issue, but a different one. And not something Japanese culture, but how all manufacturing companies have shifted more and more to a supplier model over the years. The FJR is cheaper now adjusted for inflation and has more and more features since it was released in 2002. That said, this issue is a big one...probably up there with the ticker issue that was one of the first pinned issues on this forum. [/QUOTE]
