Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Major front end wobble (especially if not gripping with both hands) between 35-50mph. Several hundred complaints online, but nobody has a 100% fix. Almost caused an accident during a turn with the wobble. Almost feels like you're going to lose control. Brought it to the Honda dealership and they said several people have also brought in there bikes with the same issue, but no known fixes.”
