Consumer Description

WHILE RIDING MY BUELL 1125CR, THE SYSTEM VOLTAGE ERROR CAME UP ON THE DISPLAY. IT WAS LATER IDENTIFIED AS THE STATOR BURNING UP BECAUSE OF THE HEAT THAT IS PRODUCED IN THE CHARGING SYSTEM. WHEN THIS FAILURE OCCURRED I LOST THE ABILITY TO CHARGE MY BATTERY THUS EVENTUALLY MY MOTORCYCLE SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THIS IS SPECIALLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THERE IS NO WARNING OF THIS HAPPENING AND THIS FAILURE IS VERY COMMON ON THIS YEAR MODEL AROUND THIS MILEAGE. *TR
