- Fuel/propulsion system
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.

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 SETUP NORMALLY, AS IT IS ROUTINELY USED TO MANAGE THE BIKE UNDER SLOW CONDITIONS WITH THROTTLE APPLICATION. THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION HAS HAPPENED TO ME.…
