Ill check out pros closet. I would assume they will offer less than half of a new one. Maybe $1500.00. I think its worth more than that in parts. But I will check

Used phone for this short video of the noise. The microphone on phone picked up the noise better than my old Gopro. Take a listen.

Jaberwocky, thanks for the links to the forks. Civante has the crown race taper machined directly into it. Those looked like the crown race is missing and instead would use a pressed on crown race that came with the headset ---IDK ???? The Richey one looked like it had a taper there but not...

FYI: Headset bearing Civante: Upper bearing VP-P08F (41.8x8x45) Lower bearing VP-P22 (46.9x7x45) No they didnt use common 1.125 to 1.50 tapered steerer. They used 1.125 to 1.25 --- so it is hard to find local fork to fit. Both the bearings and the fork are hard to find. If anyone has suggestion...

Just a heads up::: Not really a recall. Your Civante make odd noise? Some Civante forks were made wrong apparently. Well with my other post about the frame, Yamaha support told my dealer "There was a new technical message that came out from Yamaha in Japan regarding the Civante, indicating...

Thoughts please about used parts value to a 2022 Civante (250mile) if I part it out. I'm not sure there is much interest in it as parts but just throwing it out there and maybe someone has experience selling used bike parts. Maybe the motor, controller, battery, wheels, and others possible to...

Yes, I would do it. But it kills the warranty. I told dealer I would just buy a aftermarket fork and lets try it instead of waiting 2 months. Just help me find one that fits the goofy size Yamaha uses. He said that deletes the warranty. Get a load of that shite. I bet if you have a bad battery...

The shop has tried to locate the noise and is relying on Yamaha to supply what they suggest to replace. Yamaha ultimately decides what part to send, not the dealer. They send the cheapest part first. Also don't bother to call Yamaha customer relations number they have on their web site...

I like the way you are thinking. If it wasn't under warranty, the can in the garage would be used already. Only other thing I would say once I did that, the bike on facebook marketplace for sale (assuming it worked to quiet it). Right now, I couldn't even sell the bike at half price due to the...

Watch my video again and pay attention to the beer can. I can pinch the can and it pops right back making similar noise. Then watch tightening and loosening the stem bolt. Frame makes the same noise. Frame is made from old beer cans i suppose and the noise is normal?? You do it on your Civante...

This is reason for this post. Yes it is a Yamaha problem. Sure the dealer is on the hook to fix it for them, but on the other hand does Yamaha offer or require each dealer mechanic to have some kind of training on each model of bike? Do they supply mechanic with certificate as proof they...

Jabberwocky: Thanks for your input, but I have been trying to get this solved for 5 months now. All your suggestions were already tried in first few month of ownership, so as to give me the run around so I don't dispute it on my credit card. Keep in mind the noise in the video is the clicking...

Still no resolution to this matter. Now waiting another 2 months for different part from Yamaha. I will make another post about that as they revealed information others may want to know.

Video of the noise.

In my mind there is a difference if the frame breaks from being used 2 or 3 yrs later vs bad since day1. Warranty wise - no difference. Should find out resolution soon.

I'm posting here on EBR because they made glowing review of of Yamaha ebikes on Youtube. I'm presently in a dispute with Yamaha over my Civante frame. This post is to inform how Yamaha warranty affects the consumer. This frame issue has been issue since the bike came home with me. Now consider...
