Yamaha TW200 Problems by year

a turn his rear indicator light was flashing in the opposite direction. Upon return to his residence he noticed that right front daytime running light (incorporated in front indicator lamps) was inoperative. He also confirmed that when he switched indicator to left, the right rear would flash and vise versa. He contacted dealer to report findings and they said they would call back in a few minutes to schedule a date to repair ... they never called back. We decided to truck his motorcycle back to my house so I can figure out what is wrong instead of dealing with Ridenow on Rancho maintenance that have extremely low ratings and obviously don't know what they're doing. I am not familiar with un-crating and bike build-up so I have no idea what is factory or dealerships responsibility. For the gearbox issue I found the clutch torsion spring improperly connected to actuating arm (this appears to be a factory issue as reported on forums) Clutch cable freeplay was also way out of specifications. I also found that the right front and right rear turn signal indicator assemblies were in the wrong position. The double filiment assembly was located in rear and single filiment assembly was up front, hence why right front daytime running light inoperative. Furthermore two wires in lighting assembly harness were cross connected causing opposite indications compared to switch position. I also found battery hold down strap and battery vent tube not connected.

and that although all paperwork has been submitted, the website has not been updated, and the inspection people here in kailua-kona will not inspect it (this year) because now they are going through the website. I repeat, for the last 5 years, the bike has been registered and passed inspection. Now I have a vehicle, with registration up to date, that won't pass because, the dmv blames, yamaha, which again blames dmv. I am the only loser here. Yamaha has offered manufacturer certificate of origin stipulating it can be ridden on streets, but these were not received by the inspection department people in kailua-kona, hi because they abide by what your website says.

it home after the first attempt by the dealership to repair the issue. The vehicle was purchased brand new on 12/03/2011, and picked up on 12/07/2011. Problem worsened as the bike was ridden. At 20 miles, it was returned to the dealer for repair. It has been in for repair for this issue a total of 4 times since the purchase date for a total of 17 days in the shop in the 45 days since its purchase. On the third repair, the engine also was leaking oil. The vehicle only has 50 miles on it as of 01/14/2012. *Tr
