Consumer Description

CLUTCH FAILED TO DISENGAGE. I WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY. I HAD JUST ROLLED MY MOTORCYCLE OUTTA THE GARAGE. STARTED THE MOTORCYCLE IN NEUTRAL AND THAT'S WHEN IT LEAPED FORWARD WITH A VIOLENT JERKING MOTION AND WOULDN'T STOP. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO KEEP HANGING ONTO THE RIGHT HAND BRAKE LEVER UNTIL IT ULTIMATELY KILLED THE ENGINE AND STOPPING THE MOTORCYCLE. THE DEALER HAS ESTIMATED THE DAMAGE TO BE OVER $9200...!!! IT HAS HAD ALL RECALLS PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED.
