“Rear brakes on my 2009 harley davidson ultra classic, they froze and I had no brakes, pedal would not move at all. It was like pressing against a solid walk with me foot, if it wasn't for my front brake I might not be alive today ! This is very deady.”

NHTSA complaint #10895828, filed 2016-08, 25 miles

“Abs modules failing. There is an electronic and hydraulic portion of the module and both were diagnosed as being bad. Braking sucks when this happens as you are left with a very stiff brake lever and no other warning.”

NHTSA complaint #11019811, filed 2017-08, 5 miles

“The guard/spring housing locater on the rotor behind the drive sprocket developed a fatigue crack, it propagated approximately half way around the circumference before separating and then being pulled thru between the drive chain and sprocket . this caused the drive train to seize up locking up the engine and rear wheel and damaging the engine. being a motorcycle this can lead to a serious injury or death crash. fortunately for me it let go at low speed.”
