Consumer Description

I STOPPED DURING A MOTORCYCLE RIDE TO TAKE A PICTURE AND TURNED THE IGNITION KEY ON MY MOTORCYCLE TO THE OFF POSITION. WHEN I TURNED THE KEY BACK TO ON NO POWER WAS AVAILABLE. REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO USE THE KEY WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. I KNEW THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON SUBSEQUENT YEARS OF THE SAME MODEL MOTORCYCLE FOR THIS PROBLEM. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHEN I WAS IN MOTION THE ENGINE WOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY STOPPED AND ALL ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE MOTORCYCLE SYSTEMS WOULD HAVE BEEN LOST AS WELL.
