Example complaints

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

“My Honda africa twin DCT stalls at low speed. It happened twice. When I about to move forward from the stop sign, the bike stalls itself. It is very dangerous for a motorcycle.”

NHTSA complaint #11473920, filed 2022-07

“Have experienced myself that this motorcycle, which utilizes a DCT clutchless system for gear changes, is prone to stalls when taking off from a stop at low throttle inputs. A benefit of the DCT system is it's purported not to stall. This is very different than the fuel tank / filter issue which resulted in a recall of 2020 models, that affected bikes at high speed. I have spoken to several owners of the same bike all experienced the same. We discuss frequently on an owner's forum. An online poll shows 45% of owners have experienced it. …”

NHTSA complaint #11473859, filed 2022-07

“TFT failed 9/8/23 to respond to touch input. Can only be operated by bar controls. Terribly distracting. Other owners report similar failures. Screen is manufactured by Garmin for Honda.”

NHTSA complaint #11543373, filed 2023-09
