2004 Yamaha FZS6 problems

Filed Aug 30, 2010 · Acceleration, Fuel system · 00 · crash · 1 injury

Hello, my name is [xxx] and I live in romania. I own a yamaha fz6s made in 2004, VIN [xxx], 72 kw. On the 2010/07/24 I had a crash because the engine og the bike stalled while I was driving it. I had no major wound, but I scratched the bike. Lookin over the internet to see what happened, I have discovered the tps problem (the federal safety agency campaign number: 06v371000) and the service recall bulletin from yamaha motor corp. I went to the yamaha dealer in bucharest, they have checked the bike and they admitted that the taps sensor is faulty. But the surprise comes now: they refuse the change the part (which was never changed, by the way), unless I pay for it. I am really frustrated about this. I was trying to get an official yamaha email to write about this issue, but unfortunately I was not able to find such an email address on the official yamaha website, so I am writing to you, maybe you can help me with some contacts (email or phone) of yamaha motor corp. (headquarters of USA and/or europe) in order to write to them or call them to see if this is the way they treat their customers. You can find me at: [xxx]thank you very much for your help!
