2006 YAMAHA YP400

ACCELERATING FROM STOP INTO A LEFT TURN AT AN INTERSECTION THE ENGINE JUST DIED AND WE ALMOST FELL BECAUSE A BUMP AND BRAKE LIKE EVENT OCCURRED WITH THE BIKE LEANING OVER FOR THE TURN, THIS WAS VERY UNSETTLING. SIMILAR EVENTS HAD OCCURRED PREVIOUSLY AFTER STARTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP OR A NEAR STOP. THEY HAD OCCURRED WHEN DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE AND THE ENGINE RESTARTING RIGHT UP AFTER EACH INCIDENT. THIS LAST TIME IT OCCURRED WITH THE BIKE LEANING, WITH A LITTLE HIGHER MOMENTUM BECAUSE OF A HIGHER SPEED AND IT HAPPENED AT THE WORST PLACE TO OCCUR, AT A BUSY INTERSECTION WHILE IN A BAD ANGLE. THEN ENGINE HAD ISSUES RESTARTING AGAIN SO I HAD THE BIKE PICKED UP BY A DEALER NEAR ME AND AFTER INSPECTION I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS A BAD FUEL PUMP, AND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF POST IN THE WEB OF SIMILAR OCCURRENCES TO OTHER OWNERS OF YAMAHA MAJESTY 400'S. *TR
