Example complaints

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

“While riding the motorcycle on the highway, at approximately 60 MPH, the front tire picked up a small, unseen piece of road debris and flung it into the oil filter located on the lower front end of the motor cycle body. This action caused the filter to be punctured, resulting in a large quantity of oil to be ejected from the bike and slung along the entire bottom of the motorcycle including the exhaust, the rear brake assembly, and the rear tire. I became aware of the situation when I noticed in the rear view mirrors a large amount of smoke coming from the bike. …”
