The issue
On certain vehicles, the front brake pad material could separate from the backing plate due to insufficient adhesion. If pad separation occurs, there could be loss of braking ability with the front brake, which could lead to a possible crash. Correction: Front brake pads will be replaced with ones that have the pad material properly adhered to the backing plates.

Si cela se produit, il peut y avoir une perte d’efficacité du frein avant, ce qui pourrait causer un accident. Correction : On devra poser sur ces motocyclettes des plaquettes de frein avant dont la garniture est bien collée.
