What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
At low speeds the engine dies without warning. This condition first happened as I was shifting down from 2nd to 1st gear. When the engine dies, the rear wheel locks. This has continued to happen since I've owned this machine. It has also died when trying to accelerate from low speeds.
Consumer writes in regards to motorcycle vibration and front brakes issue. The consumer stated the vibration was caused by the front forks. The chrome tube wobbled around inside the lower slider tube on both front forks. The consumer believes the manufacturer is aware of the failure but, would not acknowledge it.
After purchasing the new motorcycle and riding it home the bike stalled when I downshifted 3 separate times. I've ridden the m/c several times since then and it occasionally stalls on downshifting-at least once on every ride. This happens whether the m/c is cold or warm.
On that date, approximately 85 miles into my first ride, the bike stalled without warning on deceleration, with the clutch fully disengaged (lever fully in), requiring a re-start while coasting on the highway.
