I WAS RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE ON MY NEIGHBORHOOD IN LOW SPEED FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES SUDDENLY THE ENGINE STALLED, I TRIED TO RESTART THE ENGINE BUT NOTHING SEEMED TO WORK ONLY WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE WITH THE THROTTLE OPEN THE ENGINE WILL START BUT THE ENGINE DIDN'T HAVE TE ABILITY TO IDLE ONCE THE THROTTLE WAS IN THE CLOSE POSITION. NOTHING DANGEROUS HAPPENED BECAUSE I WAS DRIVING IN A NEIGHBORHOOD. IF I WOULD'VE BEEN DRIVING IN ANY CITY TRAFFIC DEFINITELY WOULD'VE BEEN A SCARRY SITUATION. THE PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN IN THE CB1100 FORUMS BUT HONDA NEVER HAS RECALLED THE MOTORCYCLE APPARENTLY IS A PROBLEM IN THE ECU WITH THE IDLE CONTROL.

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.
