Problem: The throttle cable wheel of the carburetor can move on its shaft and come in contact with the carburetor support bracket.
Risk: This could prevent the throttle from returning to the idle position, increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
Fix: Dealers will install a new throttle shaft on the affected motorcycles.
