There were a couple of 09's I saw like that at the r1 board which is why I tossed it up here... Have not seen that on 07/08's like ours.

that's crazy :wtf: I have been impressed with yamaha's build quality so it's suprising to see this. I wonder if it is a casting problem related to the metal composition or just a week spot due to the thin wall of the metal.

I smell recall!
