I KNOW MY BIKE IS IN A RECALL, I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT GETTING READY FOR IT TO TURN GREEN TO MAKE MY LEFT HAND TURN ONTO A THREE LANE ROAD AND ONCE MY LIGHT TURNED GREEN I PROCEEDED TO MAKE MY LEFT HAND TURN ON TO THE THREE LANE ROAD AND I WAS GOING FINE AND THE NEXT THING I KNEW, I WAS ON THE GROUND AND THE BIKE WAS LYING BEHIND ME ON ITS SIDE. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF MY TURN. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND OUT WHY THEY SOLD ME THE BIKE WITH THE CURRENT RECALL ACTIVE. IF THE PROBLEM IS IN FACT WHY MY BIKE STOPPED RUNNING THEN I WANT TO KNOW MY COURSE OF ACTION. *TR
