2011: “The engine dies without warning, locking the rear wheel and potentially causing a crash. This has been happening to me since I bought the bike new in march 2011, for a total of perhaps 8 incidents. It has happened with the engine both cold and fully warmed. Each incident happened at low speed, in a lower gear, most often immediately after a down-shift. In the latest incident, the bike was in neutral and rolling forward towards stopped traffic. …”
