THE COILS ARCH TO THE FRAME, AND ARCH BETWEEN THE SPARK PULG WIRES.THEY ARE LOCATED BETWEEN BOTH HALVES OF THE GAS TANK. I REALLY BELEIVE THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. THE SMALLEST OF GAS LEAKS COULD IGNITE OR WORSE. THIS WOULD INFLECT MAJOR INJURIES TO THE RIDER!

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.
