What are the defects?
These motorcycle models may develop a tear in the primary cup (seal) of their Hydraulic Clutch Master Cylinder piston.
What are the hazards?
If this condition occurs, the system may lose the ability to maintain enough lift to keep the clutch disengaged and if this condition remains undetected, it could allow the motorcycle to 'creep' forward from a stop, which could lead to a loss of control of the vehicle possibly causing a crash.
What should consumers do?
A letter will be sent to affected owners.
If the motorcycle is affected, dealers will replace the Clutch Master Cylinder Piston Assembly with replacement components provided in a kit specifically for this recall.
