Example complaints

“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“The motorcycle broke spontaneous two bolts that support the bracket that have the gearshift pedal, a step (to rest the foot) and the side stand. This on the left side of the motorcycle. The motorcycle can't be rode because a safety switch is in the stand.”
