    Default New Gen - 06+

    Have they been prone to any warranty issues like the older gens were?

    I remember the first gens had the 2nd gear and battery issues. Just wondering if over time the quality control has improved?

    only thing i can think of is the air filter recall and a small amount of people have complained about it shutting off when they are riding going like 70+, never had it happen to me, but damn that would suck.

    I haven't even bothered bringing my bike in for the recall. The shop would want to keep my bike for a week just to replace a couple screws and won't give them to me so whatever.
