My bike has done well these past few months and has done just under 3000Miles in a few months. All was going well until on my way to work riding to Bristol I smelt a burning smell for a few seconds. Thinking nothing of it I put it down to the fact that I put WD40 on the bike the night before and the heat from the exhaust was burinign it off.

That night I was giving my bike some TLC and noticed between the front lights thier was a small area of wrinkled bubbly body work. It was not big, the size of a tennis ball stretching onto the plastic sorround that encompasses the lights. Could not believe my eyes. My new bike damaged and defaced. Yamaha have been sent pictures and south wales super bikes have inspected the bike and the rear/back of the fairing is unspoilt therefore only giving the possibilty of external heat source causing the damage.
My bike is in a gararge each and every night and under cover in the day. there is no way this was an external heat sauce ie a lighter a torch etc. the rippled paint work is not that of a burn. Clearly there must be a manufactures cause.................................
Can any one cast some light on this situation. Before its thrown back to me...
