ENGINE MAY CUT OUT
The vibrations that occur during normal running of the motorcycle can turn the ignition off. If this occurs all power from the engine will be lost possibly putting the rider in danger.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the ignition switch with an up rated component.
REAR WHEEL MAY LOCK
The front bevel box fitted to the engine assembly has not been manufactured to specification. The deficiency can lead to oil starvation to the input gear shaft could result in 6th gear input becoming seized thereby locking the transmission with the attendant loss of control.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and fit a replacement front bevel box and input & output gear shaft assemblies.
BRAKING PERFORMANCE MAY BE REDUCED
The left front brake caliper housing may have been cast from an incorrect material. Under extreme brake application the left front brake caliper housing may rupture and affect braking efficiency.
On affected vehicles check and where necessary replace caliper
POSSIBLE LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL
In extreme and hard driving conditions it is possible for the rear tie rod fixing bolt to become loose which can ultimately result in loss of vehicle control.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace both rear toe in tie rod bolts and washers fixing points will be inspected and rear hub assembly replaced if unserviceable.

POSSIBLE LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL
In extreme and hard driving conditions it is possible for the rear tie rod fixing bolt to become loose which can ultimately result in loss of vehicle control.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace both rear toe in tie rod bolts and washers fixing points will be inspected and rear hub assembly replaced if unserviceable.
REAR WHEEL MAY LOSE TRACTION
Due to an error in the size of the slots on rear wheel rim hub it is possible that the rear wheel rim might have been installed in the wrong way with the 4 rear wheel shaft driving pins inserted in the slots rather than in the 4 relevant holes. Should this be the case the rider might experience a noisy rear wheel and under extreme situations a loss of traction of the vehicle during use.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and check for proper installation of the rear wheel rim on wheel shaft. If the wheel is installed correctly fit no.4 error-proof inserts and refit the wheel. If the wheel has been fitted incorrectly fit a new wheel rim and no.4 error-proof inserts.
TOWBAR MAY DETACH
The tow bar and whatever is being towed may become detached from the vehicle because a number of mounting points are missing from the tow bar. A loose trailer without directional control and possibly braking has high risk of incident.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the tow bar with one of modified design.
BRAKE LEVER MAY NOT PERFORM AS INTENDED AND BRAKING EFFICIENCY MAY BE REDUCED
Under certain circumstances a dimensional error on the subject aftermarket front brake levers may cause the brake lever blade to contact the handlebar grip before maximum brake performance is achieved. This condition if present may lead to longer overall stopping distances in an emergency braking situation increasing the risk of a crash. (Note that operation of the brake lever in adjustment positions 3 4 5 and 6 will avoid the above described handlebar grip contact situation.)
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and fit a dimensionally correct Front Brake Lever Kit assembly incorporating a visual identifier and is manufactured as a direct replacement for the defective part.
CLUTCH MAY FAIL AND CAUSE REAR WHEEL TO LOCK
A clutch component might fail and cause the rear wheel to lock during motorcycle use. The likely cause is high and repeated stresses on the clutch assembly after a heavy use of the motorcycle such as during its use on track. If the rear wheel locks there is an increased risk of injury to the rider and others.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the complete clutch assembly with a new re-designed one.
ISOFIX CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM MAY BECOME INSECURE
ISOFIX mountings are fixed to a cross member. As a result of vibrations and type of seat used it is possible for the ISOFIX mountings to become insecure and in rare cases break off.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and a metal angle bracket will be welded to each of the four ISOFIX brackets in the back seats to reinforce the mounting.

POSSIBLE LOSS OF STEERING ASSISTANCE
The auxiliary drive belt pulley retainer may fail and cause loss of drive to auxiliary items including the water pump and power steering pump. This may cause an engine management lamp to illuminate engine overheating or a reduction in steering assistance though steering control will be maintained.
On affected vehicles replace auxiliary belt idler pulley and retainer.

On affected vehicles replace auxiliary belt idler pulley and retainer.
BATTERY MAY DISCHARGE AND/OR HEATED SEATS MAY OVERHEAT
On the affected vehicles the electrical harnesses connecting the heated seats may under certain conditions and over time cause the heated seats to either not work or to operate permanently. This may cause the battery to discharge and can be uncomfortable/distracting to the driver.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and check the two affected harnesses. If necessary the harnesses will be modified.
DRIVER'S AIRBAG MODULE MAY NOT DEPLOY AS INTENDED
Due to a potential manufacturing defect the gas generator in the driver�s airbag module may not deploy as intended. This may reduce the affectivities of the airbag.
On affected vehicles replace the driver's air bag module.

AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY CORRECTLY
Due to a non conformity during production the passenger's front air bag inflator may rupture during deployment. This may cause metal fragments to pass through the air bag and into the vehicle interior at high speed which may result in injury or death to vehicle occupants.
On affected vehicles replace passenger's front air bag.
