Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Fuel injection flawed. motorcycle will surge forward when approaching a stop for no apperant reason. also the throttle travel is very short making acceleration control very dificult. the local cannondale dealer says this is common on 2001s and cannondale has developed a new fuel injection which cures this for the 2002 models. standard policy of dirt bike dealers is to not allow test rides as this creates a used bike for them. how is one to know of these problems up front?
