Premium Member hobbs Posted November 1, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 1, 2014 So what if you didn't get your bike from a dealer. What would I need to do to get a hold of a battery cable, or whatever fix the engineers at Yamaha decide upon? Everything went braap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest August BB Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 If there is an official recall, you can go to any dealer even without any paperwork or whatever. Well, that's how it was for my toyota recall, guessing it should be same with any recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusiphur Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I had not heard of this, can someone scan and upload the recall letter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ralph Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Try this it is from the UK Yamaha site but does work for Australia put your bikes details in vin number and it will tell you if yours is on recall. http://www.yamaha-motor.eu/uk/services/modification-checker/index.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryv Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Your FZ07, serial# (RM06E), with VIN ******** is in the affected range for a Factory Modification Campaign. No surprise, bit annoyed. Dealer did not contact me yet. I'll be calling them for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member GAZ Posted November 2, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 2, 2014 Looks like mine is affected as well. Haven't heard from the dealer yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassecou Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 From the last of it, all FZ/MT-07 ever made are on the list. French dealers have the parts and already correcting the recall issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonerider Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Nothing on the Transport Canada site about a recall for the FZ-07. Same thing on the Yamaha Canada site. This morning i went to my dealer for the storage of my bike. He told me about the recall. past bikes: WR250X, KLR650, V-Strom 1000, DR650, FZ-6, SV650S, Seca II, GS400S, Seca 750, YZ80.

valhalla Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Dealer just called. Bringing it in this Saturday. I also mentioned the "stalling" issue. Of course, they're clueless about THAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricked1 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Dropped mine off yesterday and they want it left there while they order the part. I wish they would have given me a loaner bike, it has been pretty cold riding lately though. Back to driving the 1 ton diesel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rnlarry Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I got my bike from the dealer today after almost two weeks wait. Not the dealers fault though, they were just notified last Friday of what needed to be corrected. The dealer ordered the parts Friday and rec'd them today. I was able to complete my purchase this afternoon. Hope to put a few miles on tomorrow, between rain systems. Friday is predicted to be cold, blustery and with rain and possible snow showers! Oh well, as Coach Tomlin says, "It is what it is!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryv Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Why the heck do they need to keep it while they order the part? That's ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassecou Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Why the heck do they need to keep it while they order the part? That's ridiculous.Some stories circulating in Europe, where some riders found their seat to be a bit warm (I guess the bike comes with heated seat). After going to the dealer, they found some melted wires. Maybe its just a liability issue. They don't want to become another Toyota. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member hippiebikerchick Posted November 6, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 6, 2014 Well, it would be cool to have a "heated seat" and not know it! I can imagine it now. Customer "Uh, I think there's something wrong with the battery wiring". Dealer "No, that's just your heated seat".

French dealers have the parts and already correcting the recall issue. I'm fairly confident that you are correct. If you guys/gals haven't received a noticed from the dealership, call them. Your bike is most likely affected by this recall. I just called my dealership and I fall under this recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member motomeek Posted November 6, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 6, 2014 Just got the letter for the recall in the mail yesterday. Letter states to take it to the dealership you purchased it OR to any Yamaha dealership. Bring in the letter and the procedure should take no more than 45 minutes. I plan to do mine soon and get my 4K service done at the same time. Instagram: @meekmade | You don't need to flat foot a bike to ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxtrotzulu07 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Received recall call from dealer yesterday. Don't know if I got a letter or not as only get the mail once a week or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member hobbs Posted November 7, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 7, 2014 Someone mind scanning the recall letter and sending it my way? I gotta find somewhere to get service. The only dealership within 60 miles that carries Yamaha is shet and I will never go anywhere near that dump. Edit: only if it's easy.. I can get service either way, just simplifies things.
