Doyou need an attorney to file for the lemon law on a motorcycles?
If no, they who do you file your complaint with. BBB does not do motorcycles. Motorcycle has been taken back to dealer 5 times to date. 4 times for the same “stalling” problem. Last time it stalled I was going 50 mph on a busy higway, scared for my life. I have lost total confidence in this vehicle to get me to work in a safe manner. I know this vehicle qualifies for the “Lemon Law” I just don’t know who to contact to help me get my money back.

No, you do not necessarily need an attorney but obtaining one if your motorcycle fits the bill under the Lemon law will not cost you a dime, because the law states that the manufacturer has to pay your Lemon Law attorney if you are successful. There are many nuances of the Lemon Law that have to be adhered to like notifying the manufacturer within 2 years of purchase to allow them to cure the defect and also there is a demand letter that should be sent. I believe that your best bet would be to contact the Oregon Department of Justice to further inquire here. They may be able to set you on the path to recovery. Good luck.
