Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The motorcycle has had occasional issues of stalling while riding if I pull the clutch in while coasting to a stop. For example coming up to a light or stop sign, I would anticipate the stop and downshift and pull the clutch in, resulting In a stall. Yesterday while setting the cruise control at 40 MPH and cruising down the street, the bike just stalled and turned off while being on cruise control. I was able to restrat the bike when I stopped. I notified the dealership and will be taking it in on the 11th of May.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I WAS RIDING FOR AROUND 4 HOURS ON THE INTERSTATE. I CAME OFF THE INTERSTATE AND ONTO THE SURFACE STREETS. I WAS ENTERING A PARK WITH A DIRT ROAD AND PARKING LOT. I WENT TO APPLY THE REAR BRAKE FOR STOPPING ON DIRT. THE REAR BRAKE LEVER CYCLED THROUGH THE ENTIRE STROKE. I PUMPED THE REAR BRAKE LEVER AND NO PRESSURE WAS BUILT UP. I HAD TO USE THE FRONT BRAKE TO STOP ON THE DIRT. AFTER VISITING THE PARK ABOUT 20 MINUTES THE BIKE WAS RIDDEN TO A GAS STATION AND THE REAR BRAKE STILL FAILED TO WORK. THE BIKE WAS THEN RIDDEN TO A LOCAL HOTEL STILL WITH NO REAR BRAKE. THE NEXT MORNING I TESTED THE REAR BRAKE BEFORE LEAVING FOR THE DAY. THE REAR BRAKE HAD NORMAL PRESSURE AND A VERY SHORT LEVER STROKE AND WOULD STOP THE WHEEL (CENTER STAND). AFTER RIDING ON THE INTERSTATE FOR 2 HOURS I PULLED OFF FOR GAS AND THE BRAKE WOULD NOT ENGAGE. SINCE RETURNING HOME FROM MY TRIP I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING REPEATEDLY, BIKE COLD REAR BRAKE WORKS, BIKE HOT NO REAR BRAKE.
