    I WAS TRAVELING AT A RATE OF SPEED OF 50MPH WITH MY WIFE AS A PASSENGER WHEN MY MOTORCYCLE JUST SHUT OFF NO WARNING NO NOTHING. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES TO RESTART THE BIKE AFTER GETTING IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IT WOULD JUST CRANK AND NOT START.AS WE SAT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WAITING FOR HELP WHICH TOOK ABOUT 1.5 HRS FOR MY DAUGHTER TO ARRIVE WITH MY TRUCK WE FEEL THAT WE SAT IN DANGER AS WELL AS WITH THE BIKE JUST SHUTTING OFF IT COULD OF CAUSED SERIOUS INJURY/DEATH GOOD THING I WASN'T TRAVELING AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH A LOT OF TRAFFIC. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH ONLINE THROUGH FORUMS IT SEEM LIKE ITS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE BIKES EACH CASE I READ WAS THE SAME THING THAT HAPPEN TO ME. I HAVE CONTACTED YAMAHA AND THEY SEEM TO HAVE NO ISSUE WITH WHAT HAS HAPPEN. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AS IT IS A GREAT SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
