YAMAHA

M2009-001R MODEL: 2003-2008 GP1300R, 2005-2008 VX1100 TITLE: Throttle Cable Corrosion Subject There is a possibility that the outer throttle cable could corrode and become cracked or kinked. If the outer cable is damaged in this way it could result in the inner cable to wear improperly resulting in improper throttle movement. This could result in an accident or personal injury to the operator and/or passenger. Initiate Campaign: To correct this defect, Yamaha is initiating a Factory Modification Campaign. Affected watercraft must have the throttle cable replaced with one of the new material

M2009-002R MODEL: 2006-2008 and Certain 2009 FJR1300A/AE TITLE: Main Switch Subject

The main ignition switch’s wire connection could overheat due to electrical resistance, becoming hot enough to melt the solder connecting the wire to the main switch. The wire could come off the switch if the solder melts, preventing the electrical system from functioning, If this occurs while the motorcycle is being ridden, the engine would stall and be impossible to restart which could result in an accident with injury or death.

Initiate Campaign: To correct this defect, Yamaha is initiating a Factory Modification Campaign. Affected motorcycles must have the main switch replaced with a new one designed to prevent overheating.

M2009-020R MODEL: 2008-2009 XV17PC TITLE: Fuel Hoses Subject

Due to a manufacturing error the correct fuel return line hoses are not EPA approved. Initiate Campaign: To correct this defect, Yamaha is replacing the fuel line hoses on affected units.

M2009-032R MODEL: 2005 FZS600T, YZFR1T, AND FJR1300T TITLE: Engine Idling

Subject In affected motorcycles, an improperly designed Throttle Position Sensor could cause

an intermittently unstable idle. This could cause the engine to stall at low speed operation possibly resulting in a crash or injury.

Initiate Campaign: Yamaha is initiating a factory modification campaign. Unmodified affected motorcycles must have the TPS replaced with a new one.

AT2010-003R MODEL: 2008-2010 YFM5FG YFM7FG TITLE: Steering Column Subject

In affected ATVs, the steering column support assembly can crack near the mounting area under certain riding conditions due to insufficient strength. This could result in reduced steering ability which could cause loss of control and result in injury or death.

Initiate Campaign: Yamaha is initiating a factory modification campaign. This campaign will replace the original aluminum steering column support with a steal one that has increased strength.

SUZUKI #2A08 MODEL: 2005 AND 2006 GSX-R1000 MOTORCYCLES TITLE: Frame Reinforcement Brace Installation/Frame Subject

Suzuki has received reports of cracking or breakage of the motorcycle frame in certain extreme situations where unusually high stress is placed on the frame, such as collisions involving the front wheel/fork assembly. Suzuki has also received reports of cracking or breakage of the frame behind and below the steering neck when the motorcycle is subjected to repeated hard landings from hazardous maneuvers such as extreme or extended wheelies or other stunts. Suzuki believes that this type of driving activity is reckless - and illegal when performed on a public roadway - and does not condone it. If the frame becomes broken during this type of extreme use, a crash could occur. Initiate Campaign: Dealers will inspect the relevant area of the frame for cracks. If no cracks are found, a frame reinforcement brace will be attached to the frame using bolts and epoxy adhesive. The brace is aluminum and very lightweight (less than 2 pounds). It is very slender and fits underneath the top spar of the frame behind and below the steering neck. The appearance, performance and handling of the motorcycle remain unchanged with the reinforcement brace installed. Should cracks be found during the inspection, the frame will be replaced with a new frame that has the reinforcement brace installed.

Can-Am 2009-2 MODEL: 2008-2009 Can-Am DS 90 X

TITLE: Can-Am DS90 X Tether Engine Shutoff Switch Subject

Engine may fail to shut off when pulling the cord from the accessory tether engine shutoff switch post installed on these race-ready vehicles. If this occurs in situations where the rider is ejected, the vehicle may run away uncontrolled until the engine gets back to idle. This may lead to a collision of the vehicle with bystanders, a fixed object or other vehicles, potentially resulting in serious injuries and/or death Initiate Campaign: Remove the tether engine shutoff switch assembly along with its cord.

2009-6 MODEL: 2008-2009 DS7O DS9O DS9OX TITLE: Youth ATV — Lead Compliance Subject
