Few various problems that I have heard mentioned on here, most seem to be happening to only one or two people.
1. Muffler bearing? (fuelatv mentioned^)
2. The transmission whine (all have gone away over time by the sounds of it, and not one has caused real physical damage that we know of)
3. Lower tab where suspension linkage connects to the frame has been pulling tabs off the frame due to rearward force of the link on landings (Cernics Racing). Simply needs to be welded all the way around

Discussed about 1/4 of the way down that page, again - only a limited number of cases, but worth taking a peek at yours

My dealer forgot to adjust the frog-handle on the wobbleshaft. Almost killed myself. Some people are having problems with chicken grease on the front brakes. After the CRBM install you may want to rotate the air in the tires. 
Hey so your saying my left break had chicken grease on it and thats why the right locked up on me causing me to break 2 ribs coming down that dune? :huh: Found out I also had a bruised lung, thats why I was having that trouble breathing, but all is good now.

Now i have a problem with the Idle ajduster on the handle bars, anybody know what to do? I can turn it but it doesn't work.
I've had the tranny whine, it does appear far less often now though. Stock air filter cracks at the base, replaced that with an Uni. I put a Yoshi PIM on it over the weekend and it burnt the spark arrester out of my Yoshi pipe in about 5 hours. A chunk of the sparky screen got caught in the tail of the pipe, discoloring the yoshi logo and even the end cape. As of right now I don't know if this is the pipes fault or the PIM's fault. I've put about 10 hours on the pipe with a cherrybomb before I got the PIM. I'm not happy and I hope Yosh treats me right. Other than that the bike has had no problems and I'm very pleased with it.
Here is a list of the problems I have had with mine.
1. The tip over sensor under the front plastics.
2.Weak spot in rear of frame that had to be re-welded.
3.Has problem starting when it is hot.
4.Most recently, it's been losing its power in the air only. Something with the fuel injectors.
5.Air filter ripping
6.Yosh exhaust blew two rivets out of the side of it

Ill second number 3. If I've been riding and then shut it off for some reason of stall it, it just doesnt want to start back up, especially if that fan is on. It doesnt have quite enought power to use the fan and electric starter. This only happens sometimes.
