Details
What's wrong: Due to improper heat treatment, the handlebar clamps can develop cracks, allowing the handlebar to move from its set position.
Why it matters: Unexpected movement of the handlebar may cause the driver to crash, possibly resulting in injury or death to the rider or others.
The fix: Authorized ktm dealers will replace the defective clamps free of charge. The safety recall began on May 25, 2011.
