Consumer Description
On right turns, usually immediately after starting the motorcycle, the throttle loses response. There is an unexpected loss of power and when power to the rear wheel returns, the throttle responds by exponentially increasing power even when the same amount of throttle is given to the motorcycle. On another incident, the motorcycle completely loss power and a traction control failure message appeared on the dash after the incident. Turning off the bike and starting it back restored full function of the bike, however the engine light and traction control light were on. Inspection is available upon request. Power loss is sporadic and has been randomly reproduced. Dealer has not independently confirmed.
