2 recalls across 2 model years
The Yamaha YZFR3F/G has 2 recalls, both affecting 2015-2016 models, with the most serious being an oil pump defect that can cause the engine to seize and the rear wheel to lock up suddenly while riding, raising the risk of a crash.
The second recall, also covering 2015-2016 models manufactured through April 2016, involves a clutch pressure plate bearing with an insufficient load rating that can break and prevent the clutch from disengaging. When the clutch cannot disengage, the rider loses the ability to easily stop the motorcycle or shift out of gear, which can make it difficult to slow down in traffic.
