Jane, I think the fumes you're talking about are from a spray coating they use when they ship a Yamaha.
A nasty smell - but it supposedly goes away after a few hundred miles.
I'm more concerned about the fact that a Yamaha doesn't have a tail pipe and exhausts under the muffler.
Can anyone comment on these issues?

THANKS Twopjt. I just saw your post and your comments based on 1,000 miles.
