AS I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND WE WERE SLOWING DOWN DUE TO TRAFFIC, GOING ABOUT 25/30 MPH, I APPLIED BOTH FRONT AND BACK BREAK. MY FRONT BREAK LOCKED UP AND BOTH ME AND THE BIKE WENT DOWN. I AM AN EXPERIENCED RIDER AND THE PERSON WHO WAS RIDING NEXT TO ME HEARD THEM LOCK UP WAS SHOCKED. THERE IS AN ABS SYSTEM ON THIS BIKE AND THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN EVER.

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
