I had quite the fight with the service department at our local Yamaha stealership, they were completely lying to me about the tech recall, good thing I had done my homework first.
That's BS that the dealer didn't just warranty your ECU. The throttle lag was a widely known issue that actually had safety risks associated with it.

But, I bought a dirt bike instead:

Sounds like perfect sense to me! Congrats on the new ride. Looks like a wheelie machine!

It was a tough decision, but I think I made the right one.
