The issue
On certain motorcycles, the bracket portion of the passenger grab rail, which is located to the rear of the passenger seat, can break. This could cause the passenger to lose their balance and fall from the motorcycle, or could disturb the rider's ability to control the motorcycle and could cause a crash without prior warning. Correction: An updated passenger grab tail will be installed.
Description (français)
Le support de la barre de maintien du passager, qui se trouve à l’arrière du siège du passager, peut se briser. Il se peut alors que le passager perde l’équilibre et tombe de la motocyclette, ou empêche le conducteur de bien maîtriser son véhicule, ce qui risque de causer un accident. Correction : Une barre de maintien améliorée devra être installée sur les motocyclettes visées.
