Defect investigations
Motorcycle Stalling
This RQ was opened based on seemingly related owner complaints involving motorcycles outside the scope of 06V‑301.During the course of subsequent discussions with the company, we learned that the earlier model year Big Dogs had a problem with the electronic harness control module connector that they'd previously addressed with a TSB.Since the TSB addressed a safety-related issue (stalling), Big Dog agreed to recall the motorcycles subject to the TSB (10V‑180).With that decision, ODI agreed to waive requiring a response to its information request and is now closing this RQ.
