Transport Canada recalls

Brakes#2016491October 7, 2016
484 units affected
On certain motorcycles, the front brake master cylinder may have a defective hydraulic circuit allowing air to be introduced into the brake system. This could result in degraded front brake performance, which would increase stopping distances, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the front master cylinder pushrod and boot assembly.
Powertrain#2015047February 3, 2015
123 units affected
On certain motorcycles, the screw holding the drive sprocket onto the output gear shaft may become loose. This could cause the rear wheel to lockup momentarily or completely, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the output shaft and replace if found to be out of specification.
