Complaints on fileComplaints 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.

WHEN RIDING, IN ALL CONDITIONS, AND WITH A FREQUENCY OF 3 OR MORE TIMES PER WEEK, THE ENGINE WILL CUT OFF WHEN THE CLUTCH IS PULLED IN. THIS REQUIRES ME TO RESTART THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING, MOST TIMES IT IS CONTROLLABLE HOWEVER IT IS ALARMING AS IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. THIS HAS HAPPENED MOSTLY AT SPEEDS IN THE RANGE OF 30-45 MPH.
