Consumer Description

RECTIFIER AND STATOR PROBLEM. RIDING DOWN THE ROAD THE BIKE COMPLETELY TURNS OFF. PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND SMELL SMOKE. I LOOK AT THE RECTIFIER AND IT IS EXTREMELY HOT WITH A SMALL EMBER BURNING ON THE BACK OF IT. BIKE WILL NOT TURN ON ANYMORE. LOOKS TO BE A SIMILAR RECALL FOR BIKES MADE IN 07 AS WELL.
