2006: “Tail light inoperative. For the second time since I've owned this motorcycle my tail light doesn't come on unless I jiggle the key before I ride it. This morning a highway patrol officer hit his siren to get my attention and told me my tail light was out and to get it fixed. I had the dealer replace the ignition switch last year and know it's doing it again. This is very dangerous because I leave for work at 5am and I could easily get rear ended due to no tail light. Of course the dealer tells me my bike is the only one that does this.”
