BIKE STALLS AT CERTAIN RPMS. THIS ISSUE IS PARTICULARLY DIFFICULT/DANGEROUS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STOP AND ALSO DURING STEADY, MID TO LOW RPM CORNERS. WHEN PULLING AWAY FROM A STOP BIKE CAN STALL AND DIE LEAVING ME IN THE WAY OF TRAFFIC WHILE I RESTART. IN CORNERS THE BIKE DOESN'T DIE BUT THE STALL ADVERSELY AFFECTS POWER/STABILITY. I HAVE LEARNED TO RIDE AROUND THIS ISSUE TO SOME EXTENT BUT WITH A NEW RIDER THIS COULD VERY WELL RESULT IN A TRAGIC ACCIDENT. HOW THIS HAS BEEN ALLOWED TO CONTINUE WITHOUT A RECALL OR RESULTING DEATH IS AMAZING.
