Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Throttle position sensor reading incorrectly which caused fault code in bike which then caused bike to shut off power. Took bike into dealership for repair. Dealer unplugged sensor and reconnected and reset the adaptability values instead of replacing sensor. Road bike approximately 500 miles and problem recurred. At both times this problem occurred there was sudden loss of power to engine which almost caused me to have an accident. Have lost confidence in motorcycle and am afraid to ride it due to unpredictable sudden loss of power. …”
