Default Re: Feds Probe Yamaha Rhino Deaths

The problem in my mind is they new there was a problem since 04 and instead of recalling them and Putting a six inch lip on the entry to keep legs they ignored it until 08. Its the only machine that does it. You call the riders stupid and some are. But I have seen them roll just by catching a rut. Safety should have been considered when the first report came out. In a regular auto, they recall if there is a hint of a design flaw that may result in injury. Yamaha was stubborn and A LOT of people got hurt. I find it to be bull **** they did that. Lots of kids got hurt. It crushed lots of legs. If the Ranger, Prowler, Teryx, Mule, Razr, EZ GO, or RTV had a rollover issue, you could blame the drivers. None of those 6+ have the issue. So why the Rhino? Why was nothing done when it was discovered in 04? If it was my kid, I would kick someones ass.
