TYRE VALVES MAY FAIL
It has been identified that the tyre valves may degrade leading to a risk of tyre blow out.
Recalled vehicles will have their tyres fitted with steel valves.
LOSS OF CONTROL MAY OCCUR
The front fork bottom yoke may fail causing loss of control of the motorcycle.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to check the manufacturing batch code and where necessary replace the front fork bottom yoke.
BALL JOINTS MAY FAIL
It has been identified that the front suspension ball joints may suffer from water ingress that can cause the joint to corrode and separate.
Recalled vehicles will have the front suspension ball joints replaced.
STEERING DRAG ARM MAY FAIL
It is possible that some right hand drive TGA vehicles may have been fitted with a steering drag arms that have not necessarily crack tested. If this notice is ignored and the remedial check/repair work is not carried out this could possibly lead to the steering failing.
Recall all affected vehicles to check and if necessary replace the effected parts with quality assured items.
SEAT BUCKLE MAY NOT DE-LATCH FOLLOWING AN IMPACT
It has been identified that the possibility exists that a faulty seat belt buckle has been installed as part of the six- point seat belt harness. If a faulty buckle has been installed it may not be possible open the buckle following an accident if the belt straps have been subject to a tensile load thus requiring the seat belt straps to be cut before the occupant could leave the vehicle.
Subject vehicles will have the seat belt buckle checked for the production date and replaced as necessary.
POTENTIAL LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL
It has been identified that the front suspension lower ball joints on some of the subject vehicles have not been fully seated into the hub. This has resulted in the securing bolt not fitting into the groove in the ball joint shank. If the situation goes uncorrected the ball joint could detach which could result in loss of vehicle control.
Recalled vehicles will be checked for correct location of the ball joint and rectified as necessary.
ENGINE MAY CUT OUT WITHOUT WARNING
A result of the vibration at the mounting location and the mis-routing of various wires the bank angle sensor can give a false tip signal which causes the engine to cut out. This could in certain circumstances cause an accident.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to move the bank angle sensor from the original location on the battery tray to the current production location on the seat latch.
POSSIBILITY OF FUEL LEAKAGE
It has been identified that on vehicles fitted with fuel tanks which incorporate an internal breather pipe the breather pipe may not be to specification. This may result in swelling and cracking of a grommet and detachment of the breather pipe from a connector tube. In this condition fuel may enter the breather pipe resulting in MIL illumination fuel odour and drivability concerns such as hesitation misfiring stalling rough running or difficult starting. In the worst case fuel may be discharged onto the ground.
Recalled vehicles will have the fuel tank replaced.
SHOCK ABSORBER MAY DETACH
In extreme circumstances it is possible that the upper shock absorber support can shear causing the vehicle to drop down suddenly at the rear and leading to a likely loss of control of the vehicle.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit a repair kit that supports the upper shock absorber mounting bracket.
AIR INLET INTERCOOLER MOUNTS MAY CRACK
The mountings for the intercooler air inlet (bonnet air intake garnish) is inappropriate and heat from the engine may cause mount deformation resulting in increased stress on the mounts. This condition could cause the mounts to crack and in a worst case scenario the bonnet air intake garnish could fall off potentially creating a traffic obstruction.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit new air intake garnish mountings.
ENGINE MAY OVERHEAT
Upper coolant hose may detach causing loss of coolant.
Recall affected vehicles and fit new coolant hose and clamps.
OIL MAY LEAK
The Oil Cooler hose may fracture causing an oil leak
Recall affected vehicles and check gap between towing hook and oil cooler hose. If less than 15mm install modified pipe. If more than 15mm check pipe for damage and if necessary replace.
CRASH SIGNAL PROTOCOL MAY NOT OCCUR IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION
A software error may exist in the airbag control unit which can prevent a crash signal being generated in the event of a rear-end collision. As a result automatic unlocking of the doors and switching on of the hazard lamps cannot be assured.
The recalled vehicles will have the airbag control unit replaced.
REAR SEAT MAY FAIL DURING REAR IMPACT
In the event of a rear end accident it is possible that the reclining mechanism of the second row seat could fail which may result in personal injury if the seat was occupied at the time.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit improved reclining adjusters to the second row seats.
FIRE MAY OCCUR
The electric cooling fan control unit's metal cover may not have the correct corrosion protection. Should corrosion occur water may enter the control unit causing an electrical malfunction and in extreme cases cause a fire in the engine compartment.
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit an improved fan assembly.

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit an improved fan assembly.
INCORRECT FRONT TIRE FITTED TO THE VEHICLES WHICH MAY CAUSE PERFORMANCE ISSUES.
A tyre (90/90-19) which is a size that has not been tested on these machines has been fitted to front wheel. This could lead to the machine not performing to expectations and the possibility of an accident.
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to replace the front tyre for one of the correct size (100/90-19).
