I was riding the motorcycle on sunset blvd around 5 pm during traffic when suddenly the engine started breaking so hard, I pulled the clutch and costed to the side of the road, had to call aaa to tow the bike, I tried to start the bike but found out that the engine has seized, this IS a problem with these bikes oil delivery system o-rings failing & result in oil starvation & engine seizing. I bought this bike new from a yamaha dealer and had no engine modification.
