Transport Canada recalls

Brakes#2015527November 5, 2015
198 units affected
On certain motorcycles, the front brake hose could fatigue and crack due to tight left turning manoeuvres. The outer protective covering of the brake hose may kink due to excessive bending stress, causing the outer jacket of the brake line to crack, potentially resulting in a brake fluid leak. If brake fluid leakage occurs, the maximum front brake pressure may not be able to be applied. This would also increase stopping distances and could affect braking control, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the front brake hose with one of an improved design.
Other#2013174May 23, 2013
79 units affected
On certain motorcycles, the fasteners which secure the accessory luggage rack may loosen over time. This could allow the luggage rack to separate from the scooter and strike another vehicle, a stationary object, or a bystander, causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install locking nuts and apply thread locking compound to the fasteners. The luggage rack brackets will be replaced with stronger versions.
