GT09

Hi cgreaseman Yes I had the same problem, snapped T30 bit. So what I did was remove the pannier holders and the plastic's around the rear. This allowed enough room to get a spanner in so I could bolt the rack on nice and tight. I did this job a couple of years ago, and on reflection I think Yamaha make these bolts hard to remove so people like us don't do the fitting ourselves and risking 50 L boxes flying down the road. Good luck Greg

Fitted mine with no problems. Regards Greg

Hi Skip I have just got home from the dealers, they did the ECU recall, and yes I agree the throttle response is very nice and I think the quick shifter and blipper are even better, having said that they were great before the update. They are ordering a new throttle tube to be fitted at a later date. Greg

Hi I'm not sure what you mean in your post, it states in my recall notice from Yamaha Quote Due to an improper ECU program, your machine may be affected by engine stalling or limited throttle response, under certain conditions. My bike has done 8500 Miles and has stalled twice. Regards Greg
