Consumer Description

ENGINE CUT OUT UN-EXPECTEDLY MULTIPLE TIMES (5) DURING A 200 MILE TRIP. FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN 18K MILES, BUT VERY SCARY, OF COURSE IT HAPPENS AT THE MOST INOPPORTUNE TIME, IN TRAFFIC. AT IDLE, IT QUITS, OR, WORSE, CUTS OFF WHEN DOWNSHIFTING. MULTIPLE POSTS TO THE MOA CONFIRM THAT THIS ISSUE IS COMMON IF NOT PREDICTABLE SOONER OR LATER. VERY CONCERNED FOR SAFETY OF MYSELF AND MY PASSENGER(S)BTW, MOA IS THE OFFICIAL BMW MOTORCYCLE OWNERS ASSOCIATION OF WHICH I AM A MEMBER. THANKS *TR
