STALLING WITHIN THE FIRST 5 MINUTES OF OPERATION. THE BIKE HAD DIED IN TRAFFIC TWICE AND ONCE AT A STOP LIGHT NEARLY LEADING TO A VEHICLE REAR END ME. IT HAS ALSO DIED AFTER STARTUP BEFORE GETTING ON THE ROAD AND NEARLY STALLED MANY TIMES. DEALER AND HONDA WILL NOT RECOGNIZE IT AS A PROBLEM.

Owner report 11664956 · 2025-06-04 (June 4, 2025)
Vehicle stalls. Vehicle is equipped with a DCT which stalls at roadway speed. When decelerating from ~25 mph to 0 mph at traffic, most commonly while coming to a stop for a red light, the motorcycle will stall. The engine turns off. The engine will often refuse to turn back on. Use of the start switch produces a clicking noise and requires several tries to restart motorcycle. The bike then starts in Neutral and needs to be shifted back into Drive, Sport, or a manual mode to return to movement. This is dangerous when it happens in traffic, becau…

Owner report 11006551 · 2017-07-20 (July 20, 2017)
THE HONDA AT WITH DCT TRANSMISSION: WHEN HITTING THE FRONT BRAKE (RIGHT GRIP) THE RIGHT HAND IS STILL ON THE THROTTLE. A SLIGHT HAND SHIFT WHEN GRABBING THE BRAKE (ESPECIALLY UNDER EMERGENCY BRAKING) WILL CAUSE THE THROTTLE TO ENGAGE FORCING THE BIKE TO LOOSE CONTROL. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW. THE THROTTLE SHOULD AUTOMATICALLY DISENGAGE WHEN THE THE FRONT LEVER/BRAKE IS A APPLIED. WITH A CLUTCH OPERATION THIS CAN BE CONTROLLED VIA THE LEFT HAND, BUT WITH THE DCT (AUTOMATIC) THE CLUTCH DOES NOT DISENGAGE. THE REAR BRAKE (RIGHT FOOT) SHOULD BE…

Owner report 11234560 · 2019-07-24 (July 24, 2019)
RIDING MOTORCYCLE ON INTERSTATE WHEN I EXPERIENCED LOSS OF POWER, BARELY ABLE TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC. COULD GO NO MORE THAN 15 MILES AT A TIME FOR 130 MILES HOME. DEALER FINALLY DETERMINED FUEL TANK LINING COMING OFF CAUSING DEBRIS IN FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. HONDA STATES FUEL PUMP IS ON BACK ORDER UNTIL MID AUG BUT WOULD NOT ADMIT TO DEALER THAT THERE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE.

Owner report 11350466 · 2020-08-20 (August 20, 2020)
MOTORCYCLE HAS DOCUMENTED HISTORY OF INTERMITTENT LOSS OF POWER WHILE IN MOTION. REMOVED FUEL TANK AND FUEL PUMP TO DISCOVER INSIDE WELDS OF FUEL TANK HAD WELDING SLAG THAT HAD COME LOOSE AND CONTAMINATED THE TANK. THE FUEL FILTER, FUEL PUMP, AND FUEL PUMP HOUSING WERE ALL FOULED WITH THE SLAG WHICH CAUSES A CLOG IN THE FUEL FILTER. THIS LEADS TO FUEL STARVATION AND UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER. THIS CAN BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IF A MOTORCYCLE LOSES POWER ON THE HIGHWAY IF THAT POWER IS REQUIRED.
