RECALL CAMPAIGN 09V471000 MY MOTORCYCLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AS STATED IN THE NOTED CAMPAIGN. THE MOTORCYCLE STALLED WHILE DOWNSHIFTING AT LOWER RPM LEVELS. I HAD BEEN RIDING THE BIKE AT FREEWAY SPEEDS(65-75 MPH) FOR APPROXIMATELY 45-50 MINUTES AND THEN MOVED ON TO THE CITY STREETS (STOP AND GO AND 30-35 MPH) AND WITHIN APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES, THE BIKE EXPERIENCED THE STALLING. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT FIRST DESCRIBED IT AS CARBON BUILD UP AND THEN NOTED THAT IT WAS DUE TO THE BUILD UP ON THE THROTTLE BODIES AND WAS ATTRIBUTABLE TO BAD AMERICAN FUEL. THE REMEDY WAS TO REMOVE THE CARBON BUILD UP. *TR
