370 units affected
On certain motorcycles, the licence plate bracket mounting screws could loosen, allowing the plate assembly to contact the rear tire. This could cause the licence plate bracket to rotate and damage the rear brake line, causing a fluid leak. The loss of rear brake function, in conjunction with traffic and road condition, and the rider’s reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will remove the rear licence plate mounting screws, apply thread-locking compound, and reinstall, tightening to the specified torque.
