Details
What's wrong: The affected motorcycles may have an improperly machined crankshaft which may result in the failure of the connecting rod bearing retainer.
Why it matters: If the connecting rod bearing retainer fails, the engine may stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the crankshaft assembly, free of charge. The recall began on August 26, 2016.
