Details

What's wrong: The upper radiator hose may crack resulting in a coolant leak.

Why it matters: If coolant leaks onto the rear tire, it can cause a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will install a new upper radiator hose, free of charge. The recall began December 17, 2018.
