| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While driving through a mountain pass (3,00ft), throttle control became unstable with engine hesitating then surging. after exiting freeway the bike violently slowed/speeded up when trying to get up to speed. the fact no other traffic was present prevented an accident. after shutting the bike off and restarting it operated normally until i drove back down to sealevel where the problem briefly repeated. i have since learned that this same problem is happening to other owners and there have been no warnings from the dealer or manufacturer. i will take the bike in for service when they open this week but reports from other owners indicate the manufacturer has yet to verify/correct the problem. *tr |
