Eight month old XV 950 with less than 4.5k on the clock. It's been back to the dealer on two occasions with a loud squeal on acceleration. The first time they said it was build up?? on the front brake, stripped and cleaned it, this didn't solve the issue. They still have it for the second time and they tell me that its normal for the gear box to whine. This is not a whine, this is a squeal, loud enough to hear over the wind noise and ear plugs, and to attract the attention of pedestrians. It is being test ridden again today but they claim not to be able to hear the noise. really at a loss, if anyone has any ideas I'd like to hear them.
Been in touch with Yamaha cust. service who to be frank are not helping a great deal.
Dose anyone have a contact email for Andrew Smith, Vice President Sales & Marketing Operations at Yamaha Motor Europe?
