Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The clutch assembly of the 2004 honda rebel cmx250c motorcycles were defective from assembly at the factory. honda dealerships have a (secret) service bulletin to refer to that describes the following: the clutch assembly is likely to fail under 1000 miles. due to failing of this component, it poses a hazard while traveling down an interstate, since the motorcycles ceases to accelerate and basically is unable to provide power (torque) to the rear wheels. i have replaced the friction discs and metal discs along with the springs to increase the "clutch stack height" and therefore avoid slipping and malfunctioning of the clutch. i do have all of the old parts that i replaced available. honda refuses to pay for the faulty clutches and has yet to take responsibility that the honda rebel motorcycles built for the year 2004 have faulty clutches. *jb |
