Recalls

Steering #06V130000 · 2006 · 6,746 units

Problem: On certain motorcycles, the bolt that attaches the steering damper body to the frame bracket may not have been tightened sufficiently during vehicle assembly.

Risk: If the bolt loosens and backs out completely, the steering damper could inhibit free movement of the steering assembly causing a loss of steering control. this could increase the risk of a crash.

Fix: Dealers will tighten the steering damper bolt to the proper torque and inspect the damper movement. the recall began on april 28, 2006. owners may contact kawasaki at 1-866-802-9381.
