NHTSA complaint #10898108, filed 2016-08, 29,899 miles“My 2006 Yamaha Roadliner has an intermittent stalling problem. The bike will run fine but when stopping at a red light, stop sign, ect and the bike will stall. The RPM will start dropping once the clutch is pulled in and it will not stop going down until the bike stalls. The engine will drop to around 500 RPM, fight to stay alive for a second, and then shut off. This happens whenever the bike wants to and I have found no way to duplicate the problem. This makes it impossible for a dealership to diagnose the problem. …”
