Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When my motorcycle reached 8,000 miles it had a high speed whine, when I had a new tire installed , I found the rear wheel bearings were in pieces. I now have 18,000 miles on it and again the bearings are out. I believe there is a problem that Honda knows about . If one of these motorcycles has a bearing lock up at highway speeds it could be fatal.”
