Electrical System · at 4,692 miles · reported May 30, 2011
Driving down road doing about 25 MPH motorcycle stalled would not start again. Checked ignition fuse and found it to be blown. Replaced with new 15 amp fuse. Tried to start the bike again and the fuse blew right away. Inspected wiring harness and found a bunch of burnt wires. Ignition switch was hot to the touch. I only have 4694 miles on the bike. This can cause a serious accident do to the bike stalling out in traffic.

Dt*: the contact stated since the motorcycle was purchased, it was noticed the seat was very uncomfortable. While driving 65 MPH on normal highway, the contact developed severe back pain. The dealership was contacted who stated the manufacturer agreed to give a $50 credit on a purchase of a new seat which was identical to the original seat installed on the motorcycle. The contact expressed concern that driving the vehicle was a safety risk due to the severity of the back pain created by the unpadded seat. Updated 2/12/2007 -
