More than 300 Yamaha motorcycles are recalled in Russia

Yamaha Motor CSI announced the recall of 324 Yamaha YBR125ESD motorcycles sold in 2018-2019. The reason for the recall is a discrepancy in the design of the rear brake pad, due to which, at high temperatures, there is a possibility that the lining may separate from the base of the brake pad, the press service of Rosstandart reported. In all vehicles, low-quality brake pads will be replaced with modified ones. All work will be carried out free of charge for the owners.

According to the analytic agency AUTOSTAT, for the first nine months of 2020, 785 Yamaha motorcycles were purchased in Russia, which is higher by 28.9% in compare with the same period of the previous year. As a result, the Japanese brand took the sixth place among all motorcycle manufacturers in the Russian market. In general, the sale of motorcycles in our country in January-September grew by 22.3% and reached 14,651 units.
