“I puurchased the motorcycle new on 11/19/19. After 3k miles the front wheel and suspension began lurching severely when the front brake is applied in motion on city streets. At slow speeds when approaching a stop sign/light the lurching is worse to the point where I can only use the rear brake to stop the machine. I have nearly lost control of the motorcycle on several occassions when turning on pavement at low speed due to the severe lurching when applying the front brake. …”

“When slowing with the front brake there is a pulsing sensation, like the brake grabs and then releases. I first noticed this on the highway with strong breaking from about 70 MPH. It felt like a strong high frequency vibration in the front of the bike. It is most noticeable at lower speeds, when slowing for a stop light or stop sign. When I took the bike in for scheduled service I told the dealership about it and asked them to check the brakes. This was in november when the bike was only 5 months old. The dealership informed me the front brake rotors were warped by about 10mm. …”
