- Exterior lighting
The directional lights(right and left) cancel before making the turn. Because intersections are inherently dangerous for motorcyclists, I feel it's unsafe to look down at my display to check if the signal light is flashing.

- Exterior lighting
This is on a motorcycle: The right hand turn signal/License plate vibrated off. July 5, 2024 I had just got back from my girlfriendâs house and I had planned on riding the bike to her house on Sunday.

Vehicle had a no start 3 weeks after purchasing, dealer inspected said to charge battery. 2 weeks after getting bike back, no start again. Dealer picked up said right hand module was bad and was replaced. Same night we picked it up, bike had another no start. Dealer picked up and currently has in possession says it is once again right hand module which they had just fixed. No solution as of yet.
