ive been beating on mine since May of '04,and the only problems were caused by myself,,,,the bike has givin me zero grief

go back to Honda if their so perfect
One thing happens is your reply??? THE FRICKING ROD BUSTED UNDER NORMAL USE ON A STOCK ENGINE!!! I dont care how well yours has treated you, his broke. If it happened to you it wouldnt be much of a boost in your perception of Yamaha quality.

Honda's service record is a lot better than Yammis, and most likely everyone else's. As for me it's kawasaki, those worthless bastards wont get another dime from me or my family.

I have 5,000 miles on my 03 Grizz....had some CV joint issues with it but Yamaha stood behind them even after my warranty was up.
Other then that I had to replace a $9 seal.
My 2000 Kodiak had $7,500 trouble free miles on it when I traded it in on my Grizz.
I understand your mad.....but like others said....give it a chance. It could have been alot worse....it could have broke after your warranty was up.
I ride both a Honda and a Yamaha....for me both brands are awsome.
I have 3,500 trouble free miles on my 01 Rancher.

Personally I plan to purchase a new 2006 or 2007 Griz, and I know that sometimes things go
wrong with any engine. I really don't care as long as the company stands up and warrantees
the machine. If not I would have reason to be PO'd.

I would definetely be pretty angry after only owning it for 2 weeks, but you should be very lucky that the warranty is covering it, and dont give up on yamaha, i had a yamaha timberwolf 250 and i used to be the living .... out of it and it still ran like a champ up until the day i sold it. both Honda and Yamaha are good, i prefer yamaha, but that just me. dont give up on the yamahas.

If you bought it new, and it had no miles or use before you...you got a right to be pissd . You could have been really pounding on it, and it still should have held together. I know many people with grizzlys, and they can really punish them, and it handles it with out complaint.
Things happen, and sometimes, bad parts make it thru the inspection area, and make it into a motor. I wouldnt let a freak occurance like this stop me from buying another yami.
At least the dealership and yamaha are standing behind their sale, and fixing it, ,with out claiming abuse, and turning down the warentee request. This is why they have warentees, to protect the buyer from freak happenings like this.
If you swear off yami, and buy something else...be aware, there are worse brands out there.

Please, go back to Honda's because they never break. And then go back to school.
