Most Recent Complaints
FRONT WHEEL IS BENT, MOTORCYCLE HAS NOT BEEN LAID DOWN OR BEEN IN A WRECK, JUST NORMAL RIDING ON ROADS. SAME ROADS I RIDE THE OTHER 2 MOTORCYCLES DOWN WITH NO PROBLEMS. MOTRCYCLE HAS 4924 MILES ON IT. NEW WHEEL $700+, ACTUAL DATE OF DAMAGE UNKNOWN, ACTUAL SPEED UNKNOWN, NOTICED DAMAGE TODAY. PROBABLY SOMETIME LAST FALL.
I AM A 61 YEAR OLD RIDER WHO HAS LOGGED APPROXIMATELY 320,000 MILES ON 8 MOTORCYCLES IN THE PAST 11 YEARS. DURING THE COURSE OF THOSE MILES I HAVE NEVER DAMAGED THE WHEELS ON ANY OF THE MOTORCYCLES. I PURCHASED MY 2016 KAWASAKI VERSYS 1000LT NEW IN MARCH 16 AND BENT MY FIRST FRONT WHEEL IN JULY AT APPROXIMATELY 7,000 MILES. I WAS JUST RIDING ON A STATE HIGHWAY AND DO NOT RECALL HITTING ANYTHING THAT MIGHT DAMAGE A WHEEL. I REPLACED THE WHEEL WITH A NEW KAWASAKI FACTORY FRONT WHEEL AND LESS THAN 2,000 MILES LATER - I BENT IT. ONCE AGAIN I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT CAUSED THE DAMAGE AS THE BIKE NEVER WAS RIDDEN OFF PAVEMENT. I BELIEVE THAT KAWASAKI IS USING WHEELS THAT ARE TO LIGHT WEIGHT FOR THIS CLASS OF MOTORCYCLE.
