Consumer Description

I'VE BOUGHT 2 BATTERIES, 2 STATORS AND 2 RECTIFIERS BECAUSE MY MOTORCYCLE CHARGING SYSTEM IS OVER CHARGING AND FRYING THE WHOLE CHARGING SYSTEM. IT CAUSES MY BIKE TO HAVE A VERY RAPID JOLT/LOSS OF POWER ALMOST THROWING ME OVER THE HANDLEBARS BECAUSE IT JUST FALLS ON ITS FACE AND DIES. THEN IT WON'T RESTART OR ANYTHING UNTIL THE PARTS ARE REPLACED! THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES TO ME IN THE 8 MONTHS I'VE OWNED THE BIKE AND I KNOW FOR SURE IT'S HAPPENED AT LEAST 1 TIME PRIOR TO ME PURCHASING IT..... THE TIMES IT'S HAPPENED TO ME I'VE BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 55-65 MPH.
