**NHTSA SAFETY DEFECT COMPLAINT** **Vehicle:** 2022 Harley\-Davidson Street Glide CVO **VIN:** [XXX] **Odometer at beginning of trip:** 9,768 miles **Current odometer:** 9,914 miles **Miles traveled during trip:** Approximately 146 miles I am reporting a potentially serious safety defect involving the throttle/grip control system on my 2022 Harley\-Davidson Street Glide CVO\. During a recent trip, I was traveling approximately 65 mph on the freeway when I attempted to apply additional throttle and the motorcycle did not respond to the throttle input\. This created a serious safety situation because I was traveling at highway speed and suddenly had no normal throttle response\. I pulled the motorcycle safely to the side of the roadway\. **The motorcycle remained running and idling\. I did not shut the motorcycle off and I did not turn off the key fob\.** While the motorcycle was still running at idle, I was able to re\-establish the connection/function between the throttle grip and the motorcycle\. Once throttle response was restored, I was able to continue riding\. Approximately 10 miles later, the same loss of throttle response occurred again\. I again pulled over, and while the motorcycle remained running at idle, I was able to re\-establish the throttle/grip connection and regain throttle response\. This problem occurred a total of **six times during the trip**\. On one occasion, I was able to get the throttle to respond by physically moving/sliding the throttle grip back and forth\. I also observed that the throttle grip could move in and out approximately **one\-quarter inch very easily**, which did not appear normal to me\. I was not using cruise control when these incidents occurred\. The motorcycle did not stall or shut down during these incidents\. The engine remained running at idle while the throttle grip intermittently failed to provide the expected throttle response\. repeated loss of throttle response while traveling -chsracters INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION
