Consumer Description

WHILE OPERATING MOTORCYCLE ON A CITY ROAD THE ENGINE STARTED TO MAKE A GROWLING NOISE AND CAUSED A LOSS OF POWER. I AM GLAD I WAS NOT ON AN INTERSTAE HIWAY PERFORMING A TURN AS THE LOSS OF POWER SURLEY WOULD HAVE BEEN A FATALITY. THE PROBLEM IS OCCURING ON ENOUGH HD THAT A SERVICE BULLITIEN HAS BEEN ISSUED BUT HD WILL NOT DO THE UPGRADE UNTILL FAILURE DOES OCCUR. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE A FATALITY DOES OCCUR.*AK
