The 2014 Yamaha Bolt has been recalled to repair a slack in the wiring harness that could come in contact with the exhaust manifold. The heat from the exhaust could cause the damage to the wiring, resulting in the motorcycle malfunctioning. |

I can understand the problem of modern motorcycle designers, they work for 90% behind a computer screen and not many have a mechanical or hands-on technical background. So the radiating heat from a exhaust pipe is something they have maybe some problems imagining. |

I totally agree, its very poor on the part of the manufacturers, Surely they thoroughly test the pre-production models, and then test the production models before they release them to the dealers, or are they desperate to get them out there and rake in the profits ? |

I agree that every design failure, or production problem is one to many. |

It's not just motorcycles that have these recalls. When I went to England to attend university I bought a Honda Jazz and that had recalls for foot brake, handbrake, electric windows and power steering. I think manufacturers are guilty of releasing bikes and cars to the market before all faults have had a chance to be ironed out. |
