SINCE DAY ONE, THIS BIKE HAS STALLED RANDOMLY WHEN SLOWING FOR TRAFFIC OR WHEN COASTING ON ROADWAYS. IT HAS CAUSED ME TO FALL OVER IN GRASS WHEN THE BIKE DID NOT FUEL WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE. IT ALSO HAS A RANDOM HIGH IDLE AND FUELING IS HORRIBLE THROUGHOUT THE REV RANGE. I HAVE GONE TO FOUR DIFFERENT HUSQVARNA DEALERSHIPS ON THE EAST COAST OF THE USA WITH NO HELP. THEY ALL ADVISE THAT NOW THAT KTM OWNS HUSQVARNA THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE NOR DO THEY WANT THE MOSS TOOL SOFTWARE TO ATTEMPT TO RECTIFY THE ISSUES. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD WHICH HAS CAUSED ME TO NEARLY BE STRUCK SEVERAL TIMES WHEN I HOPE TO START FROM A STOP BUT EH BIKE STALLS AND I'M STUCK IN A TRAFFIC LANE. I BARLEY RIDE MY MOTORCYCLE THAT I PAID THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR. CANADA HAS ISSUED A RECALL AND I SEE NO REASON THAT THE USA SHOULD NOT HAVE A RECALL AND MAKE BMW (THE OWNER OF HUSQVARNA DURING THE MAKING OF MY BIKE) OR KTM (THE OWNER OF THUSQVARNA NOW) TO FIX THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE HELP!!!!
