Best for: Built primarily for high-speed, long-distance sport touring where comfort, weather protection, and sustained cruising performance matter more than outright agility.
Built for: A confident, refined mile-eater that blends inline-four power and shaft-drive smoothness with touring comforts like heated grips and an adjustable windshield.
Not ideal for: Not a good fit for off-road use, new riders wary of heavy bikes, or anyone prioritizing lightweight, flickable handling in town.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS:SWITCHDec 2020 · 20V814000

Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA (Yamaha) is recalling certain 2018-2020 MTT9GT (Tracer GT), 2019 MXTGTKL (NIKEN GT), 2017-2020 MT10, 2018-2020 XTZ12 (Super Ténéré), 2013-2020 FJR13, 2018 XV19B (Star Eluder), and 2018-2021 XV19 (Star Venture) motorcycles. The front brake switch can fail due to increased resistance from silicon oxide.

Risk: Failure of the front brake switch can cause the brake light to stay on constantly and/or the cruise control system to shutoff unexpectedly. Both situations increases the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front brake switch, free of charge. The recall began January 20, 2021. Owners may contact Yamaha customer service at 1-800-962-7926.
