Recall 990152 Lack of Acceleration – 2016-2021 Yamaha FJR13 Motorcycles

SEOCONTENT-START

©2021 YAMAHA MOTOR CORPORATION, U.S.A. MOTORCYCLE 11/30/2021 M2021-010R SAFETY RECALL This modification has top priority. This bulletin must be performed immediately to ensure customer safety. NOTE: Bulletins that announce a recall will have an “R” at the end of the bulletin number. CERTAIN 2016~2021 MODEL FJR1300A, FJR1300AE, AND FJR1300PA MOTORCYCLES FACTORY MODIFICATION CAMPAIGN – Rev-Limit Condition Under Specific Shifting Operation Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A. has decided that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2016~2021 model FJR1300A, FJR1300AE, and FJR1300PA motorcycles. In affected motorcycles, when the rider is shifting into second gear under certain conditions, such as if the throttle is applied before the clutch is fully engaged, causing unusually high rpm, the Engine Control Unit (ECU) will react by limiting the maximum engine speed available. This is due to rev-limiter programming intended to protect second gear components from abnormal stress. However, this rev-limiter programming may be overly restrictive, possibly preventing the acceleration performance the rider anticipates, increasing the risk of a crash. To correct this defect, Yamaha is initiating a Factory Modification Campaign. Affected units must have the ECU reflashed with the updated programing that Yamaha has tested to provide a slightly improved calibration while still providing second gear protection. Yamaha is notifying all registered owners of affected motorcycles by mail. A copy of our letter is included in this bulletin. The customer should take the letter along with the affected motorcycle to an authorized Yamaha dealer for modification. If your dealership was invoiced for one or more affected units, a computer report listing all affected motorcycles invoiced to your dealership is included with a mailed copy of this bulletin. Use the list to help ensure all motorcycles are modified. All sold motorcycles that have been registered with Yamaha will show the customer’s name and address. Your dealership must notify the owner of any affected motorcycle that was actually sold but listed as “unsold” in the report. You must modify all affected motorcycles in your inventory as well as all customer-owned motorcycles brought to you for this service. Any affected motorcycle that you purchase from Yamaha in the future may also require modification. If you purchase a motorcycle from another dealer or Yamaha, check to see if the procedures in this bulletin have already been performed before you sell the motorcycle. Motorcycles that are affected should not be operated until they are modified. It is a violation of Yamaha policy for your dealership to deliver any affected motorcycle to customers until the procedures in this bulletin are performed. Page 1 of 5 IN I i I INTRODUCTION When the modification on each motorcycle is performed, follow the Warranty Information section of this bulletin to receive reimbursement. Be sure to use the Factory Modification Campaign procedures in Chapter 7 of the Warranty and Y.E.S. Handbook P/N: (LIT-11760-00-21). Unsold & Sold Units: Use YDS Unit Status to check to be sure the unit is affected and that it is not already modified. If the unit is affected, reflash the ECU with the new software update. Parts Required: No. Warranty: Factory Modification Campaign. See the Warranty Information section of this bulletin. This modification applies to all affected units regardless of ownership or warranty status. Notify Customers: Yes, you must immediately contact any customer whose FJR1300 shows as unregistered on the report enclosed with the mailed copy of this bulletin. Yamaha has sent letters to customers whose motorcycles were registered with Yamaha as of 11/29/2021. Check Unit Status on YDS to make sure the Primary ID (PID) is in the Affected Range and is eligible for this repair.
