Consumer Description

ROTTING RUBBER PARTS ON 2008 KAWASAKI KLR650. THE GROMMET FASTENERS (WELLNUTS) THAT ATTACH THE WINDSHIELD TO THE FAIRING ARE DRY ROTTING. THIS MOTORCYCLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN 2007 AND RUBBER PARTS ARE ALREADY DETERIORATING. THIS MOTORCYCLE IS ONLY IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT WHILE BEING RIDDEN. THE REST OF THE TIME IT IS PARKED IN MY GARAGE OR UNDER A SHELTER AT WORK. THE TURN SIGNAL MOUNTS ARE ALSO DETERIORATING. IT WILL ONLY BE A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THEY FAIL AND THE SIGNALS ARE HANGING BY THEIR WIRES. *TR
