thestache Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Was going to change the oil today as I have about 150 miles on the bike. Pulled out onto the main road about 1/2mi from home and the bike stalled and fuel poured out of a hose anytime I touched the throttle. Bike towed to the dealer, spent 30 minutes on with Yamaha Customer Relations...will keep you posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MXRider Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Fuel hose between pump and throttle bodies broke or came disconnected? Just guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thestache Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Fuel hose between pump and throttle bodies broke or came disconnected? Just guessing. It was still connected, maybe broke or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest unknown Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Oh man, let us know what the verdict is. Sounds to me like your dealer made another mistake or you just have some seriously bad luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator Guru Posted August 7, 2014 Global Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2014 Man, you are really unlucky. First all the issues with your dealer and now towing the bike because it's leaking fuel. Yamaha Customer Relations really have to step up. I bet your dealer is at fault (but will deny) after hearing all the things they forgot to do during delivery. Did they at least fixed your scratches? Yes, keep us posted! We feel for you.

may2nd Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Dang stache I feel for you!! Your dealer sounds like a bad apple. It doesn't sound like they gave u any reason to have any trust in them from here on out. Good luck man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestache Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 Spoke to the dealer today, hose was not locked down. I think Yamaha Customer Relations must have called him, because he was very nice and and even called me back in 5 minutes. They're replacing one panel and a radiator cover as well, the colored panel on the tank is still on order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
