Problem: On certain motorcycles, certain transmission components may not meet yamaha quality-control standards, which could allow abnormal wear that eventually results in a broken retaining circlip.

Risk: If the circlip breaks, the transmission could lock up, which would also cause the rear wheel to lock up. This could result in loss of control and a crash with injury or death.

Fix: Dealers will replace certain transmission components with new ones free of charge. The recall began on october 30, 2006. Owners may contact yamaha at 1-800-88-yamaha or visit their website at www.yamaha-motor.com.
