I WAS 2ND IN LINE AT A STOP SIGN. THE TRUCK AHEAD OF ME PULLED OUT AND I ADVANCED. AS I RELEASED THE THROTTLE TO COME TO A STOP THE ENGINE STALLED. THERE WAS STILL POWER AS ALL DASH LIGHTS WERE ON. THE MOTOR JUST QUIT. IT HAPPENED 4 ADDITIONAL TIMES THAT DAY WITH ONE TIME PUTTING MY LIFE IN PERIL AS THERE WAS ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND I HAD TAKEN A RIGHT-ON-RED. TWO DAYS LATER IT HAPPENED 2 TIMES AND THEN THE DAY THE DEALERSHIP CAME TO PICKUP THE MOTORCYCLE I TESTED IT IN THE PARKING LOT ONE LAST TIME AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. SO DURING THE LAST THREE TIMES I HAVE STARTED/RIDDEN MY MOTORCYCLE IT HAS STALLED ON ME A TOTAL OF 8 TIMES. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS SITUATION IS THAT THE STARTING PROCEDURE FOR THIS MODEL REQUIRES YOU TO BE AT A COMPLETE STOP, PULL IN THE LEFT HAND BRAKE LEVER AND THEN PUSH THE START BUTTON. SO YOU HAVE TO BE AT A COMPLETE STOP IN ORDER TO TURN OVER THE ENGINE. THIS VEHICLE HAS A CV (CONSTANT VELOCITY) TRANSMISSION. *TR
