Hi

Have just rec'd a letter from Yamaha UK re a safety issue re XV1600 gearbox (4th gear pinion). Have contacted my dealer and am advised that the engine must be completely stripped to install new parts.

I would like to know if this is a design problem

material defect

batch problem or manufacture

I am not doubting the quality of work that my dealer can perform but would like to receive any advise if this is applicable to all XV1600 machines. I understand there was a recal in 2003 re the gearbox circlip but my Y2000 machine was not effected.

Any comments very much appreciated

Regards

Muzz

I think there is something in MCN this week regarding a lot of the 2000 range being recalled by yamaha due to gearbox and electrical problems including the R1.

Hope this helps
