    Ignition or Fuel ? Missing after bike is Hot

    TPS failures do not always show up during the self DIAG mode, OR throw a code. The TPS seems to test normally, however if it is replaced the problem goes away. Ive seen this multiple times. TPS failures are intermittent and usually cause the bike to stall at idle.

    Whistle Located

    Go faster, the whistle goes away. At 60 to 110 the whistle isnt audible over the wind noise. Not sure if it whistles at higher speeds. :agent:

    It's A Ticking (part Two)

    The tick has got to be pretty loud for Yahama to warrant a repair. Just the way it is. Your dealers not going to tear it down without authorization from Yamaha. If its not very loud, he would have to lie to get it warrantied. Keep your invoice and bring it back in a month. :agent:

    Possible Engine Problem

    Intermittent how? Is the clunk sequential? Like a rotational clunk clunk... or a does it do it once and quit? And your saying the #4 carb loses vaccum and the slide drops?
