The headlight harness may be too short
September 18, 2014Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA is recalling 5,300 model year 2014 Yamaha FZ09 motorcycles manufactured August 1, 2013, to August 29, 2014.
The recalled motorcycles may have a headlight harness that is too short and when the handlebars are turned fully to the left or right the harness may break near the coupler or coupler may disconnect from the headlight bulb. If the harness breaks or the coupler detaches from the headlight, the headlight will go out, reducing the rider's visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.
Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will install a sub-harness to lengthen the headlight harness, free of charge. The recall was expected to begin on September 18, 2014.
Owners may contact Yamaha customer service at 1-800-962-7926.
