NHTSA recall 09V235000
Power Train · CLASSIC MOTORWORKS LIMITED, USA
Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with the unit construction, efi engine. These motorcycles can experience third gear galling on the clutch shaft due to lack of lubrication. This condition can allow the gear to seize to the shaft, causing rear wheel lock up.
Why it matters: This could result in a crash that could cause injury or death to the rider.
The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace first, second and third gears with new gears which have a bi-metal bronze bushing and a new clutch main shaft free of charge. The recall began on June 29, 2009.
