Example complaints
Electrical system: “I was riding along and the bike died on me. Luckily I was at a traffic light and just began to start out in first gear when it died. I was coming back from a 150 mile trip and was 14 miles from home when it died. Tried jumping it but got no power. When the tow truck guy picked me up, he said it was my stator.”

On deceleration between 40-35 MPH, the handle bar consistently shakes violently from side to side. Appears to be failure of oem ball bearings. Needs new tapered roller bearings to cure this dangerous condition. This will be a significant cost to remove and repair the steering head bearings ($35 for bearings and $250 dealer labor).
