| Motorcycle stalled with no power or lights wile riding at 25 mph. dealer never mentioned recall, and suggested to fix wire harness at ignition point. (my cost). motorcycle stalled 3 miles out of dealer. had to pay again for labor. dealer mention first problem had cause a domino effect on the electrical harness. no warranty and may happened again. motorcycle is still having problems dealer wants to replace all the electrical harness at my expense. motorcycle can not be ridden due to the potential accident may stall with no warning as it happened on two other occasions. dealer has added that the wire harness is rubbing with the body of the bike because of defect at multiple points! and has no warranty. my life is at risk if the wire shorts and stalls the bike wile i ride. to prove my case it has happened twice to me. *nm | |||
