1985 YAMAHA VMAX (VMX12) Recalls — Canada & USA

The 1985 Yamaha VMAX has 2 recalls, the more serious being front wheel bearings that can seize from insufficient lubrication, reducing the rider's ability to control the motorcycle. The second recall involves battery cables routed too close to the coil bracket, where the bracket's edge can cut through the cable insulation and cause a short circuit. If that happens, the engine can cut out and the lights can go dark without warning.
