Details
What's wrong: The brake light may not illuminate when the front brake lever is applied because the activating mechanism in the front brake switch can bind.
Why it matters: When the motorcycle operator applies only the front brake, the brake light may not come on to alert other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Yamaha dealers will install a new front brake switch free of charge. The safety recall began on July 22, 2011.
