2012: “While at a stop, motorcycle starts moving while the clutch is fully engaged. Motorcycle needs to be shut off to prevent it from going forward at a red light or stop sign. Can lead to a fatal accident if I'm stopped and motorcycle starts riding forward with the clutch engaged. Happens every single time after I've been riding for about 25 - 30 minutes. This needs to be fixed as soon as possible.”

2013: “The motorcycle has a gear indicator (to tell what gear you are in) that displays on the dashboard. Two different gear indication problems: 1) while traveling in 6th gear, the indicator will flash between 5th and 6th gear 2) while in neutral gear, the indicator will flash between 1st and neutral. This only occurs when the bike is heat soaked in conjunction with air temperatures above 90 degrees. …”
