ODI #11432348

Incident: September 4, 2021 · Filed: September 9, 2021

The motorcycle stalls after engaging the clutch when approaching a stop. This does not happen at every stop but does happen every time I ride the motorcycle. This put me at risk because other drivers around me didn't know that I needed to restart my motorcycle before I could begin moving again. The dealership said that they were unable to reproduce the issue. No one has inspected the motorcycle except for the dealer. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. This started after six months after I purchased the motorcycle. This is after the first scheduled maintenance.
