2012 Honda GL1800 Fuel system Problems

“I am having slow speed hesitation with the throttle while riding on the road. When I roll the throttle on the bike sometimes hesitates, does nothing so when I try more fuel the throttle control finally decides to start working and has made for some wild rides especially in turns. It is dangerous to have too much fuel added when not expecting it. This has been an ongoing problem for about a year now.”

“There is a hesitation between throttle application and engine response that causes the motorcycle to lunge forward then almost come to a complete stop. I have almost dropped the motorcycle several times because of this problem. I have owned two goldwings previous to this one and neither had this hesitation problem. It is very dangerous when moving out into traffic from a complete stop.”

“Every day when I start the motorcycle and proceed to drive, it stumble or stalls almost falling over into the street as if it had carburetors and the choke was not on. To avoid this happening I must turn the throttle several times to increase the engine RPM's and then manage to keep the motorcycle from over compensating and crashing into another vehicle. I have complained to the Honda dealer and their response is they cannot duplicate the problem and or the motorcycle is operating within normal parameters. …”

“My goldwing has the hesitation problem like so many others. I have almost dropped the bike a couple of times because of the stumble. It will hesitate and then the engine will suddenly get fuel again and lunge forward dangerously. If I would hit sand or gravel or be on a gravel road or gravel parking lot it would be a bad spin out and lose control and go down with damage to myself , my wife and the bike. It has happened many times so one date listed down below is not accurate. Bought the bike on dec 12,2015 with only 1685miles on it. Previous owner said it stumbled. …”

“My Honda gold wing 2012 has a dangerous stumble that frequently causes the engine to stutter and nearly stall. Many times, I open the throttle to enter an intersection, or to pull away from a stop, and the power drops off to nothing, then, when I open the throttle to compensate, the motorcycle surges forward causing the bike to lunge ahead. In traffic, it lunges toward the vehicle in front of me. At a stop sign in the country, it lunges toward the outside of the turn. This happens after the motorcycle is started. It does not help to warm up the engine. …”
