Consumer Description

THE MOTORCYCLE WILL STALL INTERMITTENTLY WHILE BEING DRIVEN AND CREATES A DANGEROUS OPERATING ENVIRONMENT FOR MYSELF AND THE OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME WHEN POWER IS SUDDENLY AND ABRUPTLY LOST. IT SEEMS THAT WHEN THE CLUTCH LEVER IS PULLED, THE ENGINE WILL STALL. KAWASAKI AND THE DEALERSHIP HAVE BEEN VERY UNHELPFUL AND ARE PUTTING THE OWNERS OF THESE MOTORCYCLES AT RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OWNERS OF THESE BIKES WITH THE SAME ISSUE, APPARENTLY IT IS QUITE WIDESPREAD. THIS ISSUE HAS EXISTED SINCE MY FIRST DRIVE IN THE DEALER PARKING AND STILL CONTINUES. EXAMPLE: HTTP://WWW.KAWASAKININJA300.COM/FORUM/11-NINJA-300-ISSUES-TROUBLESHOOTING/928-NINJA-300-STALL.HTML PLEASE PUT THE ONUS ON KAWASAKI TO PROTECT THE WELL BEING OF THEIR RIDERS AND FIX THIS ISSUE. *TR
