Owner report 11001233 · 2017-06-25 (June 25, 2017)

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, MY 2012 YAMAHA XTZ1200 SUPER TENERE HAS FAILED TO DECELERATE WHEN I COMPLETELY SHUT THE THROTTLE. THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV AT OVER 3,000RPMS AND THE MOTORCYCLE MAINTAINED APPROXIMATELY 40MPH, WITHOUT THROTTLE INPUT. THIS MOTORCYCLE IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH CRUISE CONTROL. BRAKING TO STOP REQUIRED ME TO OVERCOME THE TORQUE OF THE ENGINE POWERING THE BIKE FORWARD AT OVER 3,000 RPMS IN ADDITION TO THE VELOCITY OF THE MACHINE ITSELF.

I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL FAULTS RESULTING IN LOSS OF POWER WHILE RIDING AND IDLE SPEED SURGES, RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE ACCELERATING WITHOUT WARNING. THE SURGE OF ACCELERATION CAUSED ME TO REAR END A VEHICLE UNDER NORMAL BRAKING, WHEN DOWN SHIFTING CAUSED THE BIKE TO LURCH FORWARD WITH AN IDLE SPEED ABOVE 4000 RPM, IMPACTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE BEFORE IMPACT SO THERE WAS ONLY SUPERFICIAL SCRATCHES FOUND. THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION CAUSED A LOSS OF CONTROL WHICH RESULTED IN THE IMPACT. I HAVE…

Owner report 11487542 · 2022-10-02 (October 2, 2022)

The ABS module on the Super Tenere is known to fail in such a way as to leave the rear brake inoperable (the brake pedal can be bottomed out without any resistance and without applying any pressure to the rear caliper). This happened on my 2012 Super Tenere, and has been discussed considerably among multiple other Super Tenere owners who have experienced the same failure. This is a significant safety risk, as any ABS module failure should fail in such a way as to leave both front and rear brake operable. It is believed amongst Super Tenere…

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

Equal-age model-year comparison

Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.

THIS MOTORCYCLE STALLS INTERMITTENTLY WHEN I ENGAGE THE CLUTCH. IT SOMETIMES IDLES HIGH WHEN MY HANDS ARE OFF THE THROTTLE. BOTH OF THESE CONDITIONS THAT HAVE PUT ME IN DANGER AS THEY OCCUR WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC AND PUT ME IN A POSITION WHERE I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE.

On 15 JUN 2023, my Super Tenere experienced total loss of rear brakes during vehicle operation in traffic, almost resulting in an accident. There was no vehilce annunciation of loss of brakes or ABS failure. Vehicle-specific forums show that this has happened to at least 5 other operators since 2014. The vehicle anti-lock braking system (ABS) pump fails in a manner that allows air ingression in the rear brake hydraulic fluid path, resulting in loss of braking. The vehicle has been serviced (by myself - brake bleed) three times, each time the …
