What owners reported
Newest filingsTHIRD GEAR IS MAKING NOISE. *TR
MOTORCYCLE PERIODICALLY STALLS WHEN STOPPING. RPM DROPS OFF, DOES NOT COME BACK UP AND BIKE STALLS. SOMETIMES WILL RESTART IMMEDIATELY. OTHER TIMES IT IS NECESSARY TO TURN KEY OFF AND BACK ON. STALLING INCIDENTS ARE SPORATIC AND IT MAY GO MONTHS WITHOUT RECURRING, OR IT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN IMMEDIATELY. ON WEB FORUM, MANY OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME OCCURANCES WITH NO ONE CONSISTANT AND TRACKABLE CAUSE. MY LATEST OCCURANCE WAS 7/9/11. *TT

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.
