Details

What's wrong: The engine control unit (ECU) programming installed under recall 20V-813 (990141), that was designed to prevent gear damage, may prevent the engine from accelerating as intended.

Why it matters: A lack of acceleration can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Owners are advised not to ride their motorcycles until they are repaired. Dealers will reprogram the ECU, free of charge. Motorcycles that were previously repaired under recall 20V-813 will need to return for the new remedy. Owner notification letters were mailed November 30, 2021.
