I have.. The service manager called Yamaha per my request and the first thing he asked, "what brand of oil is he using?". I knew this was going to be a blow off before he called. He did to.Tenerator12 said:Can't say I have that problem, but it might be time to show that to your dealer if the bike's still under warranty.
After talking with Yamaha for about 20 minutes, he said that Yamaha would not pay for "exploratory work". Now I'm standing there with two bottles of oil that was black and had so much metal in them, that it caked to the bottom of the jars. My temperature was rising, to say the least.
After hanging up, the service manager(5 star tech) said he would do it and not charge, because he felt it was bad also. That is the good part.
I was gonna buy the extended warranty, and still may, just for resale value. Even had the money in my jeans.
Contacting Yamaha on the phone is a trip I would rather not take again.
And for those of you that use engine oil that is not JASCO MA, good luck if you need an engine or clutch warrantied. I know, they have to prove it. They will ask for receipts.
