1999 HONDA VFR800

I WANT TO FILE A COMPLAINT ABOUT STUCK/RACING THROTTLE/FUEL INJECTION PROBLEMS OCCURING ON 99-00' HONDA VFR INTERCEPTOR 800FI MOTORCYCLES. I AM SURE THAT MY BIKE HAD THIS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM ALMOST COST ME MY LIFE AND MADE ME GET INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. AFTER DOING FURTHER RESEARCH ACROSS THE ... INTERNET, I HAVE COME ACROSS TWO OTHER REPORTED INCIDENTS OF THIS PROBLEM. ONE IS ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE REPORT THAT I GAVE HONDA INSURANCE ADJUSTERS. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA AND THEY SENT TWO GENTLEMEN TO MY HOUSE TO INVESTIGATE MY REPORT. I ORGINALLY THOUGHT IT WAS A STUCK THROTTLE, HOWEVER, AFTER LOOKING INTO THE INCIDENT FURTHER, I HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT IT MUST BE SOMEWHERE IN THE FUEL INJECTION BECAUSE IN BOTH MINE, AND THE OTHER REPORTED PROBLEMS, THE THROTTLE INSPECTED OUT OK. I WANT TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I DO BELIEVE THAT THESE BIKES HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO CONTINUE TO DO THIS. I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND SO FAR HONDA HAS DONE NOTHING TO ADDRESS IT. I BELIEVE IT COULD BE A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM, EVEN THOUGH THERE HAVEN'T BEEN A LOT OF REPORTED CASES YET. HERE IS THE URL TO BOTH OF THE REPORTED FINDINGS I HAVE COME ACROSS SO FAR: HTTP://WWW.CS.WISC.EDU/~LISTS/ARCHIVE/VFR/200004/MSG00553.HTML HTTP://WWW.CS.WISC.EDU/~LISTS/ARCHIVE/VFR/200107/MSG01911.HTML MY STORY IS ALMOST EXACTLY LIKE THE SECOND POSTED FINDING, HOWEVER, IT HAPPENED TO ME AT THE WRONG TIME AND I WASN'T ABLE TO REACT DUE TO THE CIRCUMSTANCES. I WOULD APPRECIATE IF SOMEONE COULD CONTACT ME ON THIS MATTER. I HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT THERE MAY BE LIVES AT RISK, ESPECIALLY AS THESE BIKES AGE. I AM ALSO IN THE PROCESS OF CONTACTING THE MAN THAT WROTE THIS POSTING SO THAT I CAN SEE IF HIS BIKE HAS HAD THE PROBLEM SINCE. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM SOMEBODY SOON.Read more
