Details

What's wrong: On certain motorcycles, the rear wheel needle roller bearing as fitted only to certain single sided swinging arm motorcycles can deteriorate and seize causing the rear wheel to lock-up.

Why it matters: This can cause a loss of control of the motorcycle.

The fix: Dealers will replace all rear wheel bearings. Owner notification began September 19, 2002.
