Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Clutch failed to disengage. I was in my driveway. I had just rolled my motorcycle outta the garage. Started the motorcycle in neutral and that's when it leaped forward with a violent jerking motion and wouldn't stop. Luckily I was able to keep hanging onto the right hand brake lever until it ultimately killed the engine and stopping the motorcycle. The dealer has estimated the damage to be over $9200...!!! It has had all recalls previously performed.”
