What is this? This is a warning about some Yamaha motorcycles. A problem in the computer that controls the engine may make the engine warning light turn on and the engine stop.

What's happening? The engine may suddenly lose power while you ride. This can make the bike hard to control and raise the chance of a crash.

Does this affect me? If you own or ride one of these Yamaha models in Germany, Bulgaria, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, or Slovenia, you could be at risk.

What should I do? Stop riding the bike and take it to a Yamaha dealer or mechanic right away. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel unsure about any health concerns after an accident.
