Seems this is a problem on late models. Appreciate others thoughts and maybe a fix. Thanks
I experienced the same problem with my front wheel brackets. The dealer says it is a manufacturing problem that Yamaha refuses to acknowledge. I had them replaced and had to buy two new front tires. Shame on Yamaha, but there seems to be no choice but to just swallow hard and move on.
