Overheat/spewing of coolant on rear brakes and rear tire of my gl 1800/a honda motorcycle. Situation was on the washington dc beltway, no shoulder to pull over onto, stop and go traffic. Motorcycle was spewing coolant on the the brakes and rear wheel, causing a very hot steam to rise on our legs and lower torso, also causing the rear wheel & brakes to become extremely slippery, as well as uncontrollable under existing traffic conditions. Honda has not fullfilled it's promis to repair these motorcycles as of yet!
