2006-2010 Yamaha YZF-R6 Recall
2006-2010 Yamaha YZF-R6 Recall
The front side reflectors on certain 2006 to 2010 model year Yamaha R6 motorcycles are not mounted high enough to meet federal safety standards. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 571.108 specifies the center point of front side reflectors must be between 381 mm and 1524 mm from the ground. The center point of the reflectors on the affected R6 models is 358 mm above the ground, a little under an inch too low.
Yamaha dealers will install a new reflector bracket on both sides of the R6, raising the reflectors to a height that meets standard 571.108. The change itself is minor but scope of the recall is large, affecting an estimated 54,000 units.
