What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2010 Yamaha XV1900, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report. These are not confirmed defects, and they are not recalls. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a category with more reports in it is not evidence that a part is defective.
Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

From owner reports, verbatim
THESE MOTORCYCLES INCLUDING THE YAMAHA STRATOLINER, ROADLINER, AND RAIDER, ALL HAVE THE SAME ENGINE. THE FUEL PUMP IS LOCATED IN A RESERVE TANK UNDER THE SEAT. THE PUMP ITSELF IS INSIDE OF A PLASTIC HOUSING THAT CRACKS (APPARENTLY IN A PRETTY SPECIFIC AREA) AND CAUSING A CATASTROPHIC LOSS IN FUEL PRESSURE WHICH YIELDS HARD STARTING, ROUGH RUNNING UNDER LOAD OR STEADY THROTTLE (DECEL BACKFIRING POPPING AND SNAPPING ALSO) AND BIKE WILL DIE WHILE IDLING OR, IN MY CASE, WHILE RIDING DOWN THE ROAD IN TRAFFIC. I WAS LUCKY THAT I MADE I HOME. YAMAHA IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND NOW THEY HAVE A NEW MODEL NUMBER 1D7-13907-01-00 WHICH SUPERSEDES 1D7-13907-00-00. BUT THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE IN EXSITING FUEL PUMPS.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
