I know somebody will quickly chime in and say "set your suspension up right and you won't need it". But, I highly recommend a steering damper. I tried everything I could on mine and it still had a lot of headshake. I had 3 pretty bad tank slappers on it as well.

So apparently what I've been reading up on claims no matter what state the warranty of the vehicle is in they are supposed to replace the lock washer and the Nut. My bike is currently at Southern Honda cause i trust them the most but if Yamaha will fix it for free thats 50 bucks i'm going to save by bringing it to RT Cycle down the road. What do yall suggests. Southern Honda "The Biggest Honda Dealer in The World..." where i know some people or RT Cycle... Both are closed today cause its Sunday and RT is closed Monday so i wont be able to find out till Tuesday if thats true or not.

Any time there is a recall no matter if you're not the original owner or its been years past the recall. It is always free and they need to do it. My vehicle had a recall on the seat belt buckles. It's an '88 and I'm not sure if its been done, if not I can roll into a suzuki dealership and they would have to do it.

Mine was done at no cost at a Yamaha dealer 6 years after the bike was originally sold. As long as no one added the dot at the end of your VIN like what is shown on the 2nd page of the TSB you posted it should be the same for you. It sucks that it happened to you, but at least there wasn't major damage and it should get taken care of.
