314 units affected
Issue: On certain motorcycles, engine vibrations may cause the wiring for the horn to break. If this happens, the horn will not work. Safety Risk: Without a working horn, a rider may not be able to warn of an unsafe situation. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Kawasaki will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealer to replace the horn, the horn mount bracket, and the horn harness.
- Engine#2021641
126 units affected
Issue: On certain motorcycles, the nuts that secure the exhaust pipe to the engine may not have been tightened properly. As a result, the nuts and securing collars could become loose and separate from the motorcycle. Safety Risk: Parts that detach from the motorcycle could create a road hazard for others and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Kawasaki will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealer to replace the exhaust pipe gaskets and securing collars, and to install the mufflers correctly.
