I have started noticing a slight resistance when turning left lately. At my 24K service they made a note to check for "notching". I never did follow that up. Think I need to get it back before the warranty runs out next January.

At the 24k service they should, according to the service schedule, have them apart and regrease them. As they should have done at 12k. Same goes for the rear linkage.

How many Yamaha dealers do you reckon actually bother?
