Consumer Description

IGNITION SWITCH IS INTERMITTENT. SOMETIMES AFTER TURNING SWITCH TO OFF POSITION THEN BACK TO THE ON POSITION, MOTORCYCLE WILL NOT START AND GAGE HAVE NO POWER. SOMETIME I MAY HAVE TO TURN KEY ON AND OFF FIFTY OR MORE TIMES AND SOMETIMES THAT DOESN'T WORK. MOTORCYCLE HAS LESS THAN 17,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN GARAGE KEPT. I'VE READ MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVING SAME THE SAME PROBLEMS.
