I contacted my local Yam dealer who checked and said it was a recall and will book me in once the part arrives.
But if I hadn’t asked I wouldn’t have known

I presume there's no time limit on having the fix carried out? My bike is in hibernation until April. I'd hate to have to wake it up for this.

Agreed about the title and it's been changed to better reflect:
1. What this is about.
2. So far, this is just UK and possibly EU. It is not a recall in the US so far.

fwiw - There've been a number of threads about troubleshooting the cruise control by checking the dual switches in that cluster.
Awesome thanks!

Ive contacted a Yammy dealership down our ways and they haven't got the re-call notice here yet, they asked if i had the 700...said nope , they have had Cruise Control failures reported and aware of the front brake switch. Shop asked if was under warranty - nope , didn't get the impression they wanted to dodge responsibilities if it comes back as a factory recall.

I also had a recall notice this morning bit of a pain in the arse but rather safe than sorry.

Hi to all!
Question:
Why will be only for UK and not for the US?
Safety is an issue, but why the difference?

Have a nice weekend!

I suggest to all with recall notice to simply call the local dealer and have them send you a switch and swap it out yourself.

I offered to fit mine myself as it was only a quick job. The dealer was mortified and asked me to let him do it!!
