E-brake does not prevent motorcycle from rolling. Never worked from date of purchase. Had it adjusted at 4000k service but it did not correct the issue. The motorcycle still rolls with the e-brake engaged.

I have a 2023 Honda Goldwing/DCT which is a 7 speed motorcycle. On the highway traveling around 70 miles per hour in heavy traffic the bike just dies and it will just coast to a stop. You can not restart the bike because it is locked in 7th gear. Twice I had to have the biked towed to a Honda dealer. I called Honda and they said they have not heard of this problem. If they go on You tube they can see where other riders are having the same problem. I left my bike in at Honda dealer 2 weeks ago and they are waiting for some guidance from Honda. I will not ride this bike again until I am sure the problem is solved by Honda. I came within inches of getting killed on the highway with everyone passing me at 70 to 80 MPH as I coasted to a stop First time this happened bike had 50 miles on it

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
