“2013 Honda goldwing navi package throttle response stumbles when the engine is cold. After a cold engine start, regardless of outside temperature, starting in a low gear (1st or 2nd is normal), upon throttle roll-in, the engine will not respond enough to keep forward momentum. You have to slip the clutch and keep the RPM's up to keep the motorcycle moving without hesitation. I feel this is a major safety concern. Once the engine achieves operating temperature, the hesitation/stumble is resolved. This needs to be fixed by the manufacturer - Honda. Asap.”
