THE MOTORCYCLE RUNS SEVERELY LEAN, CAUSING IT TO STUMBLE AND STALL AT LOW RPMS. THIS IS PRIMARILY NOTICED WHEN ACCELERATING FROM IDLE. MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH IT WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN ACROSS A FOUR LANE ROAD WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. AS I STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD AND LEANED INTO THE TURN, THE BIKE STALLED CAUSING THE REAR TIRE TO QUICKLY LOCKUP AS ENGINE POWER WAS CUT. I DISENGAGED THE CLUTCH, BUT WAS TOO LATE TO PREVENT CRASHING. LUCKILY, ONCOMING TRAFFIC SAW ME SOON ENOUGH TO STOP, AND I AVOIDED BEING STRUCK BY AN ONCOMING VEHICLE. THE CRASH WAS LOW SPEED AND RESULTED IN ONLY MINOR INJURY TO MY LEFT LEG, BUT PREVENTED ME FROM RIDING AND PERFORMING AIRBORNE OPERATIONS (ARMY) FOR A FEW WEEKS. IN MY 6000 MILES SINCE THE ORIGINAL ACCIDENT, THE VEHICLE HAS SUFFERED COUNTLESS OFF-IDLE STALLS, AND HAS PUT ME IN JEOPARDY MANY TIMES. *TR
