Just completed an exercise in the workings of the US Consumer Product Safety Commission Freedom of Information Act. Back in Nov., I requested all details and incidents regarding the Death Fork recall by Yamaha back in 1981. I was hoping to find that the file would shed light on the facts and reveal that the whole thing was overhyped by todays recall standards.
The magic letter arrived from Washington today and here's what it said. The search produced one compliance file to be known as "File ID810045". The file was opened on Dec 10, 1981 and closed on Jan 1, 1986. The file was inadvertently destroyed at the Washington Record Center where the file was retired.
Conspiracy???!!!

That is the most promising and exciting start to a post in a long time....slightly anti-climatic in the end though, but as you say, it could be part of the conspiracy?
Has anyone made headway in to finding the huge stock-pile of new old stock Aerospace frames?

I tracked down the people who dealt with the recall for Yamaha. They WOULD NOT tell me virtually anything. They just want to move on and forget about. Yowzer, wounds not healed even after all these years! I bet the CIA have File ID810045 stored in Area 51...  |
