Consumer Description

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 1999 VICTORY V92 MOTORCYCLE. ABOUT A WEEK AFTER I BOUGHT THE MOTORCYCLE IT STARTED SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL WHEN YOU TRIED TO UPSHIFT, THEN WHEN YOU TRY TO UPSHIFT AGAIN IT IS IN THE WRONG GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES NOW. THIS HAPPENED WHEN A CAR DID NOT SEE ME AND I NEEDED TO GIVE IT SOME THROTTLE TO GET OUT OF THE WAY, INSTEAD I WAS BUSY SEARCHING FOR THE RIGHT GEAR. LUCKILY I WAS NOT RAN OVER. I HAVE READ MANY REPORTS OF THE SAME THING HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE,SOMETIMES WITH THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTING RESULTING IN A SKID, BUT THERE IS NOTHING BEING DONE ABOUT IT. THE PROBLEM WITH THESE MOTORCYCLES NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE PEOPLE ARE INJURED OR KILLED, WHICH I AM SURE SOME PEOPLE HAVE BEEN. *TR
