What owners report
The motorcycle will lose all power and completely shut down. This will happen when the battery voltage meter indicates full voltage. This happened multiple times on our 2022 trip and again on our 2023 trip despite having the issue diagnosed at a dealer. We were told that everything was fine and no issues noted and the battery is good. In 2024 the battery indicator light came on, we took the bike to the dealership and had to have a new stator, regulator and battery. We took the bike on a trip in 2025. On this trip the voltage dropped to where the bike would not run. After getting the bike to the dealership we were informed that the regulator was shot.
