What's wrong: The shift shaft torsion spring may fracture, giving the shifter a loose feel and affecting the ability to shift gears.
Why it matters: Difficulty shifting gears can cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.
The fix: Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will install a new shift shaft torsion spring, free of charge. The recall began December 17, 2018.
