Details
What's wrong: Certain motorcycles were built with a condition whereby the pant leg of some riders can have direct contact with the exhaust pipe.
Why it matters: This condition could cause the pant leg to char or burn, which could lead to the possibility of injury to the rider.
The fix: Dealers will add a new exhaust shield which provides additional coverage ofthe exhaust pipe. The recall began on July 12, 2007.
