Buell electrical problems

Owners have filed 95 complaints with NHTSA about the electrical system on Buell vehicles — 25% of everything reported about the brand, across 10 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Buell 1125CR, worst in 2009.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
