Yamaha Neos 50cc Moped/hairdrier?

Question

Hi guys, My first question is, like recalls on cars where the manufacturer contacts owners of certain models that have to be recalled to have certain safety mods done.

Is there a similar recall system running for motorcycles/ hairdryer like my sons.

second question concerns same hairdryer,centre stand spring lug snapped off engine/casing, does anyone know if this is a common fault and if yamaha has recalled neos's with that prob.

Answer 1

there will be a recall prosidure,but not on the chinese poo thats on the road today...as for the stand spring lug i would put that down to the way its been treat..it should beable to weld back on..

Answer 2

Yes there are recalls on motorcycles.  I've had two recalls on one of my bikes.  But because I was not the original owner, I did not know about the recalls until I had the bike at a dealer for some other work.

You should talk to a Yamaha dealer about the lug; both whether there was a recall and whether it is practical to weld it back on.  Typically to weld aluminum, you'd have to dismantle the engine before you could weld on the case.
