Title: 2012 Motor Replaced Poll
Post by: firepower on May 17, 2015, 07:43:05 PM

I am curious about 2012 motor replacements and repairs. Seeing how there are many threads about it, I start a poll and get responses here.
If you do vote can you do a short post with more details.
Is there a case for a recall?

Firepower, I've kicked this off.

I've got the 2012 XU described in this post - http://electricmotorcycleforum.com/boards/index.php?topic=3504.0 (http://electricmotorcycleforum.com/boards/index.php?topic=3504.0)

Bike has ~ 1300 miles on it now, the motor's one thing that hasn't been replaced. It's an XU, and most of the motor problems seem to be with the S model?

My 2012 DS motor was replaced in August of 2014, still under the warranty period.

Info about my motor glitch saga here:

I dropped the bike off at the dealer with faulty motor August 13, 2014. Picked up my bike with new motor September 20, 2014. Bike had 8,849 mi when I picked it up. Now it has over 15k mi. No glitch since I got the new motor.

I have 9500ish miles on my 2012 S, all very stop start riding and it lives outside uncovered all year around so the casing is corroded but it seems to be running fine at the moment.
