Details

What's wrong: Kawasaki motors Corp., U.S.a. (kawasaki) is recalling certain 2018 kawasaki ninja h2 sx se (zxt02bj) motorcycles. The pin for the center stand spring may have been improperly welded, and, as a result, the pin may shift or fall off resulting in the spring detaching and the center stand dropping to the ground unexpectedly and dragging while riding.

Why it matters: The dragging center stand can cause a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Kawasaki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left center stand bracket, free of charge.
