    2005 YAMAHA YZFR1. THE MOTORCYCLE STALLS UPON DECELERATION. IT IS DIFFICULT AND POSSIBLY DANGEROUS TO RIDE WITH THIS MALFUNCTION WHICH IS COMMON. TPS SENSOR REPLACEMENT HAS TEMPORARILY FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR SOME PEOPLE BUT DEALERS ARE RELUCTANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE ANY ISSUE, SO FAR YMAMAHA IS DEAF TOO. *JB
