Details

What's wrong: Piaggio group americas, Inc. (piaggio) is recalling certain 2017-2018 aprilia rsv4 1000 rf, and 2017-2020 aprilia rsv4 1000 rr and aprilia tuono 1100 rf and rr motorcycles. The front brake pads may corrode, potentially causing the front brake pad friction material to detach from the backing plate.

Why it matters: If the front brake pad friction material detaches from the backing plate, the motorcycle may experience increased stopping distance, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Piaggio will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front brake pads, free of charge. The recall began May 22, 2020.
