Details

What's wrong: During production an incorrect screw may have been installed in the motorcycle's steering head. This situation could cause the steering head to possibly become loose during normal operation.

Why it matters: Any loosening of the steering head could adversely affect the driver's ability to steer the motorcycle increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealer will replace the steering head screw with the correct screw. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on August 13, 2010.
