Each component in detail
What the reports in each category say, in the owners' own words
Body & structure
Reports naming the vehicle structure, frame, body panels, doors, hood and trim.
From owner reports, verbatim
The rear body fairings/panels do not correctly assemble together on this motorcycle, which leaves unintended gaps between the panels and insecure connections to each other and to the motorcycle. It seems that interference with the gas tank is preventing correct assembly.
Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.
Electrical
Reports naming the electrical system — wiring, battery, charging, control modules, infotainment and electrical accessories.
From owner reports, verbatim
The emergency off switch, has shown in the owners manual, does not turn off a running engine. The switch stops the engine from cranking/starting only. Not sure if this is a defect or just a design change and the owners manual was not updated. I owned an older version of this bike and it worked as described.
