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

“Dt: owns a Honda goldwing which has been modified into a conversion motor bike which turned this into a 3 wheel vehicle. Consumer felt there was an issue with the brakes. The brake pads destroyed the rotors. Consumer did not have a sensor like those on a car ,but there was only 4-5,000 miles before the rotor were destroyed. Because Honda was a dual braking system ,so if losing the rear still has the front brakes, the motor bike conversion front brakes were not modified but rear brakes were converted. …”
