03- Accessories#2026115
6 units affected
Issue: This recall is for certain replacement handlebar under holders that were installed during service by a Honda Powersports dealer. On certain motorcycles, the replacement handlebar under holders may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the handlebar holders may not secure the handlebar correctly and cause it to move while riding. If this happens, there could be a loss of steering control. Note: This voluntary recall is not being conducted under the requirements of the Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Safety Risk: A loss of steering control could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Honda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorcycle to a dealership to replace the handlebar under holders.
- Lights And Instruments#2021316
4,768 units affected
Issue: On certain motorcycles, the rear reflex reflector lens could have a defect that could reduce the amount of light that is reflected. As a result, the reflector may not meet the requirements of Canadian regulations. Safety Risk: A reflector that is difficult to see may make the motorcycle less visible to others. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Honda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealer to inspect, and if necessary, replace the rear reflex reflector.
- Powertrain#2018377
616 units affected
On certain motorcycles, the clutch assembly may not have been manufactured to proper specification and could result in the assembly to overheat, and the outer clutch basket to break. This could cause a loss of motive power, and if the basket were to break, potentially cause metal fragments to jam internal drive gears and result in the rear wheel locking up. Both of these conditions could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the clutch basket and judder spring.
