The issue
THE FUEL TANK HEAT SHIELD MAY CONTACT THE REAR BRAKE TUBE WHEN THE SUSPENSION IS IN THE FULL JOUNCE POSITION. CONTINUED CONTACT COULD CAUSE THE BRAKE TUBE TO WEAR THROUGH CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID AND A PARTIAL BRAKE SYSTEM LOSS WHICH WOULD RESULT IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES. CORRECTION: HEAT SHIELD WILL BE MODIFIED TO ELIMINATE POTENTIAL FOR HEAT SHIELD TO REAR BRAKE TUBE CONTACT. ALL BRAKE TUBES DAMAGED DUE TO CONTACT WITH THE HEAT SHIELD WILL BE REPLACED.
Description (français)
Le bouclier thermique du réservoir de carburant peut toucher la canalisation de frein arrière lorsque la suspension est en position de compression maximale. Des contacts répétés peuvent perforer la canalisation, entraînant une fuite de liquide de freins et une perte partielle de la puissance de freinage, ce qui peut faire augmenter les distances de freinage.
