UNDER BRAKING THE CLUTCH DOES NOT FULLY ENGAGE CAUSING THE MOTORCYCLE TO STALL AT SPEED. THERE IS NO CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT AS IT IS A HYDRAULIC CLUTCH. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS A PERSISTENT PROBLEM, AND IT IS WELL KNOWN IN THE STRATOLINER COMMUNITIES. THIS ISSUE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS CRASHES AS THE BIKE COULD STALL IN AN INTERSECTION OR WHILE IN A TURN CAUSING A HIGH SIDE CRASH. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME. *TR

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.
