The Road Transport Department (JPJ) has recalled several Yamaha models, namely the MT-09, Tracer 9 GT, and Ténéré 700.

This recall campaign has been published on the Hong Leong Yamaha Motor (HLYM) website. The recall for the MT-09 and Tracer 9 GT was announced on July 7, 2025, while the recall for the Ténéré 700 was published on April 29, 2025.

JPJ, as the statutory body overseeing transportation, made this announcement to ensure the safety of vehicle owners and will monitor the progress of these recall campaigns.

Number of units affected by model

MT-09 (November 2021 to February 2025 production): 1,649.
Tracer 9 GT (November 2021 to February 2025 production): 1,369.
Ténéré 700 (2023 to 2024 production): 149.

For the MT-09 and Tracer 9 GT models, it was found that their Throttle Position Sensors (TPS) were not functioning properly. Both models share the same CP3 engine, hence they have the same issue. The service center at HLYM headquarters and official Yamaha Big Bike dealers will replace the TPS and reprogram the Engine Control Unit (ECU).

As for the Ténéré 700, there is an issue with the clutch operation. The service center at HLYM headquarters and official Yamaha Big Bike dealers will replace the faulty units with new clutch kits.

HLYM has also published the frame numbers (chassis numbers) of the affected units. They will also send out notices to the involved owners and advise them to schedule an appointment for repairs—either at the HLYM headquarters service center in Sungai Buloh or at authorized Yamaha Big Bike dealerships nearest to them.
