| Description of the problem | At the dealer, i test tried the x500. At the first stop sign, i accelerated and the motorcycle stalled. When i decelerated, the gas in the gas tank moved and the bike ran again. I went back to the dealer immediately and reported the problem, explaining what had just happened. They told me that it must have been the governor. I asked for the x750, everything went perfect and i bought it. The first incident occurred at a traffic light. I accelerated and the bike stalled. Once i decelerated and gas in the tank moved again. I immediately went to gas station and filled the gas tank with 2. 134 gallons at only 99 miles. The second 2nd incident, same accelerate in a light turning right cars behind me, stalls and get gas when i shift to second, same immediately gas station, this time fill the gas tank with 2. 469 gallons only 190miles. Capacities say, i know you have it: fuel tank 3. 5 gallons, low fuel indicator 0. 8 gallon. I will fill the tank each 100 miles until they change my gas tank with compartments inside so the gas doesn't go all the way back and the gas pump can suck it. Is really danger with vehicles pushing behind my back. I'm an expert rider, hope the rookies don't suffer an accident. Another recall to make: with the rear mirror's you are not able to see the vehicles behind you, my body blocks complete the rear view. |
