Example complaints

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

“The engine stutters and stalls at low speeds resulting in an inability to maintain forward momentum, causing a failure to maintain an upright position without emergency action to disable drive train, such as quickly disengaging clutch in order to allow a smooth coast until control of the vehicle can be safely restored. This condition persists until the engine is at full operating temperature or for about 15-30 minutes depending on riding conditions.”
