Failure of the large bearing in the final drive assembly. The seal did not leak prior to failure.
Manual transmission exhibits unsafe shifting characteristics: dificult to shift from 1st to 2nd gear without getting hung-up in neutral, sometimes drops from higher to lower gear unexpectedly.
The tires were always inflated at the pressures recommended by the manufacturers. The front wheel would bend because of its three spoke design and the soft allow used. Replacement was originally $600 plus labor and later, the price was dropped to $400 plust labor. The company refused to acknowledge the problem. I have three other motorcycles, using them to travel the same route and have never experienced bent front wheels with any of them.
