Failed over 5 times, dealer can't fix it. Motorcycle stalls at highway speeds, resulting in an accident!. Filing lemon law claim in nj soon!
Both mirrors fold back due to wind at highway speeds, repeatedly, rendering them useless. While riding you can reach up and push them back but they will just fold back again and again. Will not stay in place to allow rider to see traffic following.
