Consumer Description

BEEN HAVING A SYSTEM VOLTAGE ERROR FOR A WHILE. IT WOULD COME AND GO. SO IN JUNE I HAD TO CHANGE THE BATTERY BECAUSE IT WAS SO LOW. THE DAY AFTER I CHANGED THE BATTERY THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON SO I WAS JUST TRYING TO GET HOME FROM WORK. THE WHEEL LOCKED UP ON ME WHEN I DOWN SHIFTED THROUGH THE GEARS. FOUND OUT THE STATOR FRIED WHICH THESE BIKES ARE KNOWN FOR. THE REASON IT LOCKED UP I'M ASSUMING IS THAT SINCE THE STATOR DRAINED THE NEW BATTERY ALL THE WAY DOWN THAT THE FUEL SYSTEM SHUT OFF THEN WHEN I PULLED THE CLUTCH IN TO DOWN SHIFT THE MOTOR SHUT OFF THEN IT DIDN'T ALLOW THE REAR WHEEL TO SPIN. *TR
