## What is wrong

Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA \(Yamaha\) is recalling certain 2016\-2021 FJR13 motorcycles.  The Engine Control Unit \(ECU\) programming installed under Recall 20V\-813 \(990141\), that was designed to prevent gear damage, may prevent the engine from accelerating as intended.


## What can happen

A lack of acceleration can increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Owners are advised not to ride their motorcycles until they are repaired.  Dealers will reprogram the ECU, free of charge.  Motorcycles that were previously repaired under recall 20V\-813 will need to return for the new remedy.  Owner notification letters were mailed November 30, 2021.  Owners may contact Yamaha customer service at 1\-800\-962\-7926.  Yamaha's number for this recall is 990152.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
