VISIBILITY PROBLEM. MIRRORS VIBRATE BADLY AT HIGHWAY SPEED OF 50 TO 65 MPH. CAN NOT SEE TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC OR CHANGE LANES. DEALER AND KAWASAKI HOT LINE HAVE NOT TAKEN THE PROBLEM SERIOUSLY. I BELIEVE IT IS DANGEROUS. I BOUGHT IT NEW SO I KNOW IT HAS NOT BEEN MODIFIED. NOW HAS 650 MILES ON IT, SO IT IS NOT DUE TO AGE OF MOTORCYCLE. *TR
2009 Kawasaki KLE650A9F

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.
