| 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 2021 AND 2022 MODEL MT09M/MC/N/NC (MT-09), MT09SPM/MC/N/NC (MT-09 SP), AND MTT9GTM/MC/N/NC (TRACER 9 GT) MOTORCYCLES
FACTORY MODIFICATION CAMPAIGN – Limited Throttle Response / Engine Stall – ECU Reprogramming
INTRODUCTION
Yamaha
Motor Corporation, U.S.A. has decided that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2021 and 2022 model MT09M/MC/N/ NC (MT-09), MT09SPM/MC/N/NC (MT-09 SP), and MTT9GTM/MC/N/NC (Tracer 9 GT) motorcycles.
In affected motorcycles, due to improper ECU programming, the engine could stall if the clutch lever was not fully pulled in during downshifting or if the throttle was opened just slightly from idle. Also, due to this improper programming, throttle response could be limited if the throttle was closed fully during deceleration, a condition that would be accompanied by the engine trouble warning light coming on. Or, in another situation, the engine trouble warning light may not come on at all to alert the operator if an actual component or system error exists. Any of these conditions could result in loss of control and a crash with severe injury or death.
To correct this defect, Yamaha
is initiating a Factory Modification Campaign. Affected units must have the ECU reprogrammed (“reflashed”) with an update according to the instructions in this bulletin.
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 this 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.
NOTE: On 2021 model MTT9GTM/MC (Tracer 9 GT) motorcycles, check to see if the unit you are modifying is also affected by the Factory Modification Campaign for the throttle grip tube announced in Technical Bulletin M2022-005R. Perform both procedures at the same time for customer convenience and shop efficiency.
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 (LIT-11760-00-21).
DEALER ACTION SUMMARY
Unsold & Sold Units:
Use YDS Unit Status to check to be sure the unit is affected and that it is not already modified; confirm by checking the motorcycle according to the Identification Procedure section of this bulletin. If the unit is affected and unmodified, reprogram the ECU.
IMPORTANT: Customers with unauthorized, aftermarket ECU modifications may experience issues once the ECU reprograming required by this recall is performed. Yamaha
cannot participate in accommodating any unauthorized ECU changes. Therefore, damage resulting to an ECU during recall reprogramming because of previous unauthorized modification is the customer’s responsibility.
Parts:
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:

Motor Corporation, U.S.A. has decided that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2021 and 2022 model MT09M/MC/N/NC (MT-09), MT09SPM/MC/N/NC (MT-09 SP), and MTT9GTM/MC/N/NC (Tracer 9 GT) motorcycles. In affected motorcycles, due to improper ECU programming, the engine could stall if the clutch lever was not fully pulled in during downshifting or if the throttle was opened just slightly from idle. Also, due to this improper programming, throttle response could be limited if the throttle was closed fully during deceleration, a condition that would be accompanied by the engine trouble warning light coming on. Or, in another situation, the engine trouble warning light may not come on at all to alert the operator if an actual component or system error exists. Any of these conditions could result in loss of control and a crash with severe injury or death. To correct this defect, Yamaha
is initiating a Factory Modification Campaign. Affected units must have the ECU reprogrammed (“reflashed”) with an update according to the instructions in this bulletin. 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 this 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.

Page 1 of 5 IN I i I INTRODUCTION VDT COUPLER (1) FOR ECU REPROGRAMMING TRACER 9 GT 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. NOTE: On 2021 model MTT9GTM/MC (Tracer 9 GT) motorcycles, check to see if the unit you are modifying is also affected by the Factory Modification Campaign for the throttle grip tube announced in Technical Bulletin M2022-005R. Perform both procedures at the same time for customer convenience and shop efficiency. 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 (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; confirm by checking the motorcycle according to the Identification Procedure section of this bulletin. If the unit is affected and unmodified, reprogram the ECU. IMPORTANT: Customers with unauthorized, aftermarket ECU modifications may experience issues once the ECU reprograming required by this recall is performed. Yamaha cannot participate in accommodating any unauthorized ECU changes. Therefore, damage resulting to an ECU during recall reprogramming because of previous unauthorized modification is the customer’s responsibility. Parts: 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 affected motorcycle 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 3/16/2022.

Our records indicate that you own the affected vehicle shown above. The reason for this recall: In affected motorcycles, due to improper ECU programming, the engine could stall if the clutch lever was not fully pulled during downshifting or if the throttle was opened just slightly from idle. Also, due to this improper programming, throttle response could be limited if the throttle was closed fully during deceleration, a condition that would be accompanied by the engine trouble warning light coming on. Or, in another situation, the engine trouble warning light may not come on at all to alert the operator if an actual component or system error exists. Any of these conditions could result in loss of control and a crash with severe injury or death. What Yamaha and your dealer will do: Your authorized Yamaha dealer will reprogram (“reflash”) the ECU with an update. The reprogramming takes approximately 20 minutes to perform, but your dealer may need to have your motorcycle longer than this, depending upon scheduling. There will be no charge to you for this procedure. What you should do now: Please call your Yamaha dealer to make a service appointment to have this procedure performed. At that same time, you can find out how long they expect to keep your vehicle for this service. Remember to take this letter with you when you take in your vehicle. You should not operate your affected motorcycle, shown above, other than to take it to a dealer, until this modification is performed. Contact your dealer or Yamaha if you need assistance in having it towed or otherwise transported to your service appointment. IMPORTANT NOTE: Some customers with unauthorized, aftermarket ECU modifications may experience issues once the ECU reprograming required by this recall is performed. Yamaha cannot participate in accommodating any unauthorized ECU changes. Therefore, damage resulting to an ECU during recall reprogramming because of previous unauthorized modification is the customer’s responsibility. If you are unable to return to the Yamaha dealer who sold you the vehicle, this service will be performed by any authorized Yamaha Motorcycle dealer. For the name of a dealer near you, call 1-800-88-YAMAHA or visit the Yamaha web site at www.yamaha-motor.com. If you have had this repair performed before you received this letter, you may be entitled to receive reimbursement for the cost of obtaining a pre-notification remedy of the problem associated with this repair. For more information, contact Yamaha Customer Relations at 1-800-962-7926. Be aware that certain 2021 model Tracer 9 GT motorcycles are also affected by a Safety Recall regarding the throttle tube. If you have this model and it is affected, you will get a second letter from Yamaha. Have your dealer confirm if your motorcycle is affected by both recalls and perform them at the same time for your convenience. Federal regulations require that any vehicle lessor receiving this recall notice must forward a copy of this notice to the lessee within 10 days. If you need help: If, after contacting your dealership, you have questions or concerns which the dealership is unable to answer, please write to: Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A. Customer Relations Department P.O. Box 6555 Cypress, CA 90630 Or call: 1-800-962-7926 If, after contacting Yamaha Customer Relations, you are still not satisfied that we have done our best to remedy the situation without charge and within a reasonable time, you may submit a written complaint to the Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590; or call the Auto Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); or go to http://www.safercar.gov.
