What are the defects?
Due to improper assembly of the oil pressure relief valve it may fail and the engine may become insufficiently lubricated. This may result in a reduction of engine performance and a possible engine seizure, this could also lead to the rear wheel locking-up.
What are the hazards?
A loss of performance or engine seizure could result in the operator losing control of the vehicle. This increases the risk of an accident, which may cause injury or death to rider and/or passenger or other road users.

Owners should return the affected vehicle/s to their original selling dealer if possible, or alternately, to an authorised Kawasaki motorcycle dealership so that the recall may be completed.
