2015 Ri Recall

http://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/2015/december/recall-yamaha-2015-yzf-r1-and-yzf-r1m/

I seriously would want my money back, nor would I ever buy this version of a 2nd hand bike.

I hate Engines and Gearboxes being split on a new vehicle, it seems to always leads to other problems a few years down the line, especially on cars.

You spend all that money on a new bike, and then some mechanic that may have never done the job before.
2nd hand value must be effected on this model

Can you ask for money back or a new bike with mods built at factory? if bike is like a year old?

 

Plus this is the second recall notice on the bike, maybe someone was asleep in quality control

 

Think there is a slight difference of an engine / gearbox split, rebuild gearbox and slap back together, and hope that the dodgy Grease monkey has a slight clue of what he is doing.

 

To correct this defect, your authorized Yamaha dealer will replace the transmission assembly with one that includes gears of a different design. The procedure takes almost 16 hours to do but be aware that your Yamaha dealer may need to keep your motorcycle longer depending upon their current service schedule.
