What owners report
Repeated front brake failure, motorcycle is available for inspection. Front brake failure is an unsafe riding situation, prevents the motorcycle from stopping and exposes the rider, passenger and drivers of other vehicles and pedestrians to potential serious injury or death through loss of braking and loss of control of vehicle. Problem was confirmed by independant service dealer. Many reports of similar problems have been reported in the USA, Australia and Europe since 2012 and for model years up to 2017. Common cause is faulty ABS and/or it's related control components/modules. Motorcycle has approx 2500 miles from new. Brake service perfomed according to manufacturers recommendations by
Front brake failure without warning. Periodically the front brake lever is immobile and will not engage the front brake under normal operation. After releasing and reapplying (squeezing the front brake lever with high force) one or more times it will function. It generally brakes very hard once it re-engages. (If you increase the pressure on the brake lever enough it will give in and apply the brakes, but doing this almost locks the front wheel). This doesnât usually happen in city riding. When the front brake does fail it is usually after riding on the highway without applying the brakes for 20+ minutes. First happened when the motorcycle had around 4000 miles on the odometer, 4 months
