| Description of the problem | I purchased my harley davidson xg750 on july 23rd and picked it up on july 24 with zero miles on the odometer. On sunday july 26 the fuel light came on with approximately 98 miles on the odometer. The next day july 27 while riding the xg750 it began to surge forward and stall while accelerating from a stop in first gear. It got progressively worse 2 more times when accelerating from a stop. I drove to a gas station and filled the tank up with shell 87 octane fuel. It took 1. 819 gallons. Odometer reading was 102 miles. On july 30 with 166 miles on the odometer the fuel light came on while in route to work. After work on my way to a harley davidson service center. The gx750 began to stall and accelerate from a stop in first gear. I checked the fuel tank and it was almost full. The gx750 continued to stall and accelerate with out using the throttle. It started to progressively get worse and shut off at least 10 times. I was in heavy traffic and would stall in the middle of the intersections forcing cars to swerve around me. I made it to the harley service center with 206 miles on the odometer. |
