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

“Random engine stalls and engine dying under acceleration. Most often happens when leaving from a stop at intersections. The engine either immediately dying out before any forward movement or dying out a second later leaving me in a hazardous position in the middle of the intersection. I bought the bike new June 22, 2021 and to date May 26, 2022 this stall has occurred 8 times in 5440 miles; the first stall occurred at 1850 miles 2 months new. Note: this is the DCT version motorcycle so there is not clutch or gear shift lever to erroneously manipulate. …”
