Kawi just sent me a letter today concerning a recall on the throttle cable adjuster. They claim "The throttle cable adjuster can loosen and prevent the throttle from fully closing creating the potential for an accident resulting in injury or death. Just thought I should let yall know in case you havent got a letter yet.

 

Thanks for the heads-up.

Yea I got the letter today also. I believe it says the dealer will tighten the throttle cable adjuster. seems pretty basic, I will call my dealer to see if i can do it myself.....

 

Got mine today.

 

Mister, Im like you,, if I can do it.. A) I dont want to have to haul the heavy S.O.B. back to the dealer, and B) I dont like those idiots d1cking with my stuff anyway... This has got to be a simple deal..

Hey there is a REAL bright side to this... If this was a Yamaha V-Force, you would never have gotten the letter in the first place... Yamaha - the kings of ignore the problems and maybe they will go away..
The new yzf450 looks cool, but after the way they treated everybody on the 01 raptors with the trannys that "All went out as far as I know".. and nobody got them fixed under warranty..
Glad Kawi is at least acting like doing the right thing...
