Slowing down downshifting the engine turns off and all dash display dead. Key off/ key on engine starts fine.2400km has happened 5 times. Bike going to shop for warranty repair.

Engine shuts off when downshifting or getting ready to take off from stop.

Since around 550 miles(motorcycle now has 637 miles) my motorcycle has been intermittently stalling while pulling in clutch to downshift. I let off of throttle, pull in clutch to downshift and the engine will shut off. This has happened while going anywhere from 45-60 miles an hour. This machine will also stall on first start 99% of the time and has been getting worse. Seems the stalling issues are related, because the stalling while riding did not happen until the stalling on start up started first. Dealership/mechanic tells me that honda has no fix for this issue and doesn't even acknowledge this as an issue. Even though, honda has known about this stalling problem, since 2011 when some of those owners first started to complain. Currently i have had my bike into the dealership twice now with no resolve. I have video proof of the engine stalling on start up, but apparently this is not good enough.

The part that is causing this problem is a known software problem on the bike and it is very dangerous. The bike is stalling and cutting power while i am riding or at a stop, it seems to be random. It happens every time i ride, however, and is very dangerous. The other night my bike just shut off while cars were following me at a high rate of speed and i was nearly hit. This caused the other motorists to become angry with me and nearly put me in a terrible scenario. This seems to be a very common problem among cbr250 owners and it is not being addressed by honda. There are a ton of videos on youtube of this happening to other riders and you can see just how dangerous it is. The motorcycle only has 2k miles on it and i have checked all fluid levels so i should not be having troubles. Again, it is happening far too often, sometimes multiple times in a single 10 mile trip. It makes me not want to ride the bike, which is my only means of transportation at the moment. Honda should address this issue before somebody gets hurt and sues them or, even worse, loses their life. It should be easy enough for honda to do something about this, as this is such a popular bike. If they do not, then they will have to face the consequences as something bad is going to happen due to this problem.

Basically when you downshift on the bike no matter what speed or gear it will just shut off even when the clutch is pulled in. It doesn't do it every time but it will happen at least once every time i ride.

The contact owns a 2012 honda cbr250r. While driving at low speeds, the motor shut off intermittently. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 5.

Slowing down downshifting the engine turns off and all dash display dead. Key off/ key on engine starts fine.2400km has happened 5 times. Bike going to shop for warranty repair.

I was going at about 30mph in moderate traffic on my motorcycle, and had to use the friction zone on the clutch a lot. Occasionally, when i disengage the clutch all the way, and also close the throttle (to not give the motorcycle any additional gas), the engine will cut off and die completed. Usually, with clutch disengaged and gas off, it would idle at 1500rpm and the motorcycle would continue to roll. However, the engine died (0rpm, twisting throttle doesn't do anything), and it would not start up quickly enough. Since i stopped going forward because the engine would not start, i was rear-ended by a car, but it was not too serious of an injury. My honda cbr250r has done this a lot of times, though usually i would be able to start the engine quickly enough by pressing the start switch again. However, it is defective since the engine dies randomly if i disengage the clutch and allow the engine to idle.

Motorcycle will stall inadvertently and without warning when slowing down and coming to a stop sign or stop light.this week, it has happened twice.several times the week before and i doubt i am the only person experiencing this because this problem is well documented on youtube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r51ahfofvokmy stalling is very similar to the video above.it doesn't happen all the time, but it happens without warning and can possibly be deadly.

When cold the bike starts and then the idle increases to 4000-5000 rpm and stays until the throttle is opened and closed. Normal idle should be 1500+/-.

While driving vehicle on a county road, going straightabout 55 mph, my back wheel locked up, with no warning. I was able to safely push it off the road but the back wheel will not turn for any reason and the clutch is also extremely loose now.
