Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“During acceleration up a steep mountain grade with no shoulders and traffic behind, the connection of the electrical cable to the throttle twist grip unseated enough to break electrical connection. This caused the motorcycle to decelerate to about 5 MPH and lose all throttle control. With the traffic behind and no place to safely pull over I felt I was at a great safety risk as cars and trucks attempted to go around me. This is the third time this has happened, though not in such harrowing circumstances. …”
