Fuel injection flawed. Motorcycle will surge forward when approaching a stop for no apperant reason. Also the throttle travel is very short making acceleration control very dificult. The local cannondale dealer says this is common on 2001s and cannondale has developed a new fuel injection which cures this for the 2002 models. Standard policy of dirt bike dealers is to not allow test rides as this creates a used bike for them. How is one to know of these problems up front?

Upon start can't shift out of park without using shiftlock release-sometimes pumping brake pedal repeatedly unlocks lever and a loud clunking sound occurs. Brakes get soft intermittently and pedal goes to floorboard, have to pump brakes to regain pressure. Cruise control no longer works. Electric driver power mirror operates sporadically.*Ak

The transmission problem should be corrected by the manufacturer-dealer replacing the entire transmission with a new 2001 unit. The throttle I replaced out of my own pocket. The throttle failure was more dangerous of the two failures as it occured at freeway speeds in thick fast traffic. These bikes have had about a dozen other nhtsa recalls ket. The throtlle cable breaking was the more dangerous. *Ak

I personally know 5 men that have bought this machine and 4 of them have this problem. While sitting at an idle the machine will not disengage the automatic transmission causing the machine to roll away. It is defenitely much worse in reverse. The machine will roll up to 5 - 10 miles per hour. The idle has been adjusted down as low as possible without the machine staling. Two of these have been taken back to the dealer and they replaced the clutch assembly but some of the machines are out of warranty and it is...

When removing my foot from gas, car will not de-excelerate, even when I brake, car will resume speed. Twice has excelerated. Other problems are computer related.

Pull vehicle into garage, stopped. With foot on brake, reached to put car in "park". Sudden acceleration; enough to burn paint off garage floor. The scenario of foot slipping off brake pedal is inadequate to account for damage level and "burn-out" of tires.Photos taken.

Cruise control failed to release the throttle under any condition, brakes, shut-off swithch, or ignition switch. Very hazardous for exiting interstate or needing to slow or stop!
