On certain motorcycles, when the front fork is compressed, the brake hose may move forward and come into contact with the edge of the fork. This can cause damage to the brake hose, resulting in brake fluid leakage, possibly causing a crash with personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the brake hose bracket.
On certain motorcycles, the engine crankcase vent hole in the air cleaner case could be blocked by material left during the molding process. This could allow air pressure to build-up in the engine and cause the cylinder head cover gasket to be pushed out of place. Oil leakage from the engine during operation could drip or spray onto the rear tire, creating the risk of a crash, possibly causing personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect the air cleaner case and, if necessary, remove the obstruction.
On certain motorcycles, the taillight bulb may fail prematurely, causing the potential for a crash resulting in personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the taillight bulb.
