Consumer Description

THIS MOTORCYCLE CONSISTENTLY REFUSES TO ACCELERATE WHEN IN SECOND GEAR AT APPROXIMATELY 550RPM OR 49 MPH. THERE IS A SUBSTANTIAL DELAY IN RESPONSE AND A VERY SLOW INCREASE IN SPEED UNTIL NEARLY 70 MPH IS REACHED WHEN IT STARTS TO ACCELERATE AS NORMAL. THERE ARE NO FAULT CODES OR ANY OTHER ABNORMAL INDICATIONS, AND THIS CAN BE RECREATED AT ANY TIME. THIS POSES A SIGNIFICANT HAZARD FOR COLLISION AVOIDANCE AS WELL AS MERGING WITH EXISTING TRAFFIC. *TR
