MT09 handlebars and other recalls

[Val]

There has been a recent MT09 hanldebars recall.

FYI you can check your MT09 here:

- Yamaha Motor UK

You can get there all recall letters in pdf. Useful if yours is used like mine and you can't receive letters from Yamaha.

The nice bit is you will see there all recalls for your specific VIN.

There has been some shift and transmission issues with some VINs too.

Just an update The Motorbike Shop at Farnborough have done the handlebars.

Also my throttle was very snatchy - they have checked and updated the ECU. It works much better now.

Plus they found my yoke was kind of loose. There has been a clunking sound when I brake. They also fixed it.

All for free today

Definitely they are my favorite Yamaha garage now, can't praise the good work they've done enough

What parts did they replace for the handlebar recall? Did they replace the full clamps or just the bottom part?

Had mine done last weekend and they just did the bottom clamps as apparently they are the only bit with the paint on that caused the problem. BTW every dealer I have spoken to said in their knowledge only one bike in the U.S. seemed to have the issue and Yamaha are going over the top replacing everyone's clamps!!!
