185 units affected
On certain motorcycles, the front fender fasteners may loosen, allowing a screw head to contact and damage the sidewall of the front tire. Tire failure could cause the rider to lose vehicle control, which may result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the front fender fasteners.
