I recently purchased a kawasaki 1400 as a birth day gift for my husband. I had it exactly 48 days. Saturday 6/17/06 he was out riding his bike on 290 expressway in chicago at 90 mph with a bus behind him the bike completely shut down we do not need to explore the possibilities of what could have went wrong. Had it been an accident the first thought would have been rider error as opposed to mechanical error. Thank god he was riding in the right hand lane. He rode a suzuki 1300 for years and never had any problems. He is a very seasoned rider and he has been riding since 93 and we always bought suzuki. Now my question is if you have any concern for your customers how do you intend to rectify the situation he purchased the bike from dgy in downers grove. We called to see if they heard a respond from the manufactures no one has responded as if this is a minor situation this is a major situation because this is my husbands life the father of my children. If you have any concern for your consumers please contact me at your earliest convenience. If i am not contacted i will take that as a disregard for your consumers and i will contact the chicago sun times and let the public know about this error.
I have not had an incident as of yet but the problem i have deals with rear brake lights no coming on when pressure placed on brake lever.it takes more pressure to make them come on than is needed to stop in most situations.i have taken the motorcycle to the dealer and they didn't fix it and then i called kawasaki recall number and they said i needed to get back to the dealer about it.i have already had to pay for them just to look at them and tell me there wasn't a fix for this.since that time i have chatted online with other owners of this bike that have found they have the same problem.
I was riding in to a tunnel andheard a crack type noise then all of a sudden smoke appeared,the rear tire was rubbing undersubframe slowing the bike down, the rear suspension had collapsed and thecrossmember separated from the frame. The shock mount is hanging offthe frame.this could have possibly caused a fatal accident.

If it had happened in a corner i might not be here toregester this complaint. There are 3 broken frames i know of and one is to many. The site above lists some of them including mine with pictures.
Heard of people having problems with frames cracking on the internet and found out that mine is also cracked.it is a motorcycle and the rearend of the bike could come detached if the crack becomes a break.also have a friend with a crack in the same location.
Motorcycle frame weld broke/cracked.
