Details

What's wrong: On certain motorcycles, the throttle twist grip may not return to the fully closed position due to metal to metal contact or debris between the throttle twist grip and the handlebar.

Why it matters: Restricted throttle movement could result in a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will disassemble the throttle mechanism, clean the twist grip assembly and handlebar, lubricate moving parts and reassemble. Any worn or damaged parts will be replaced free of charge. The recall began on April 1, 2005.
