These are not recalls, they are service bulletins meant to alert the technician of the correct repairs to certain complains or conditions. If they were actual recalls, Yamaha would have notified you. This is the way it works in the automotive business also.

That is another bonus of this site. It gets the word out about any updates that you would otherwise know nothing about.

So basically the parts are no good, so replace them as a bulletin not recalls, it makes yamaha look better. Either way i need to take my sled to get repaired for free.


I do agree on this site is the only reason i know about these bulletins

There are service bulletins for most of the RS's in Europe.
Unfortunally most of the RS's shipped to Europe has bulltins on them.
The RS's in Europe are all within serial no range who need fix.

Change of jackshaft, TORS fix or clutch fix.
Some RS sleds need all 3 fixes.

Thanx to Yamaha we don't need to worry about getting this done without cost.

Yamaha really know this.

Had mine at my local dealer this week for change of jackshaft and TORS fix.

We have about 1/2 m powder up in the Highlands.
Not much..
Still more to come...
Need more snow.
