Consumer Description

WHILE RIDING IN RESIDENTIAL AREA BIKE BEGAN LURCHING AND UNABLE TO MAINTAIN CONSTANT SPEED OR RPM. TOOK TO SHOP AND THEY STATED BIKE DID NOT HAVE ANY CODES DISPLAYING. THEY LUBRICATED ALL CONNECTIONS ON THROTTLE ASSEMBLY AND IT TEMPORARY RESOLVED ISSUE. NOW WHEN I START THE BIKE THE THROTTLE IS UNRESPONSIVE AND BIKE IS NOT ABLE TO BE DRIVEN. SOMETIMES SHUTTING DOWN AND RESTARTING WILL TEMPORARILY RESOLVE ISSUE, HOWEVER, BIKE IS NOT SAFE TO RIDE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND WARRANTS A RECALL, HOWEVER NOT RECALLS TO DATE. *TR
