ABS brakes and an accident....

2000-03-15 Thread RangerJay

Guys,
We've talked about "what if" ABS failure causes an accident. Well, it seems 
it may have. The following is a letter received by Motorcycle Consumer News 
in response to the news article I did about the brake issue. (I emailed the 
guy and suggested he contact this group and the NHTSA. I hope he follows 
through.):

 Hi,
 
 I was wondering if you new of some type of article or press
 release from Yamaha regarding the premature failure of
 anti-lock brakes on the GTS from 1993 on up?
 It may even been some type of a recall.
 
 If you know who or where I can get this article I would
 greatly appreciated.
 
 This past summer I had a terrible accident due to my
 anti-lock brakes locking up.
 Now 8 months later I hear this news floating around.
 
 Once again, thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
