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

“Approaching a red light, gearing down to stop, the idle continued above 3000rpm. Shortly after that, the bike started eating the battery. Now, when it happens, I know to get it home to the battery tender asap. Three times the hd mechanics charge the battery and then, can't find anything wrong . I had to fire old glory hd in laurel, md. Looking for a real mechanic here in florida.”
