What owners report

I was riding my motorcycle on 2-11-23 heading home on the I75 highway and suddenly the engine stop working. With the bike losing speed I moved towards the shoulder pointing with my hands, the motorcycle stops and never started again. According a preliminary revision the Motor Oil bypassed into the primary due to a defective or failing seal, running out of oil and seizing the engine.

WITH ONLY ABOUT 4800 MILES ON A 2019 HARLEY DAVIDSON SPORTSTER 883 IRON - MY VOLTAGE REGULATOR STOPPED WORKING - BIKE WAS NON-FUNCTIONAL AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP TO BE REPAIRED. I WAS RIDING ON HIGHWAY I-30 FROM GARLAND, TX TO GREENVILLE, TX - LIGHTS WERE GOING OFF ON THE SPEEDOMETER, I MADE IT TO EXIT 94, GOT OFF HIGHWAY AND BIKE STOPPED DEAD. I HAD TO PUSH IT TO QT GAS STATION TO GET OFF ROADWAY SO AS NOT TO BE A ROAD HAZARD. *TR
