    THE MOTORCYCLE WENT COMPLETELY DEAD WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. NOT JUST THE ENGINE, BUT EVERYTHING. LIGHTS, GUAGES, TURN SIGNALS. IT WAS AS IF SOMEONE PULLED OUT THE KEY WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN NORMAL OPERATION. THIS HAPPENED WHILE ON A 4 LANE CITY STREET WHILE TRAVELING IN A STRAIGHT LINE AT ABOUT 45 MILES PER HOUR. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. MANUFACTURER CLAIMS NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS CONDITION, DESPITE IT BEING REPORTED BY OTHER USERS.
