What's the Problem?
According to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), this recall affects:
- 2016-2020 Yamaha FJR13A
- 2016-2020 Yamaha FJR13AE
The second gear of the transmission on the above motorcycles can crack and break under high speed loads, NHTSA said. A broken gear can cause the transmission and rear wheel to lock, causing a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
Yamaha is notifying owners and dealers will inspect and reprogram the Engine Control Unit (ECU) and replace the main axle and drive axle assemblies, if necessary, free of charge.
This recall began on January 13, 2021.
