Yamaha YZF-R25 recalled due to the faulty torsion spring and radiator hose

KUALA LUMPUR: Hong Leong Yamaha Motor (HLYM), the Malaysian distributor of Yamaha Motor Company, has issued a notice of recalling all the Yamaha YZF-R25 models. And as announced a few days ago, the recall was due to some issues with a torsion spring and a radiator hose.

Both of the issues are vital for a bike. The Spring Torsion is related to how the bike will perform, while on the other hand, the cooling function will get affected for the Hose Radiator. However, no accident has been reported yet due to these two issues. But if the company cannot check the issues perfectly, the riders might be in a big danger.
