Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

So just got the bike and i was driving home. I noticed an issue going into second gear. Bike would actually go into neutral. Ended up getting the bike home after somehow getting it into second. When I noticed that the teeth on the input shaft by the quick shift sensor looks kinda ate up. Come to find out multiple people have had this issue.
