Recall 2005016

The issue

On certain motorcycles, an improperly shaped seal in the brake proportioning control valve could allow brake fluid leakage to occur. With continued use, a leak in the proportioning valve would cause the rear brake to eventually become inoperative. Although the front brake provides most of the braking function, a loss of rear brake force could increase the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the brake proportioning valve.

Description (français)

Sur certaines motocyclettes, un joint d'étanchéité inadéquat qui se trouve dans le robinet de commande de répartition de la force de freinage pourrait permettre à une fuite de liquide de freinage de se produire. À la longue, une telle fuite finirait par rendre les freins arrière inopérants. Bien que les freins avant fournissent la majorité de la force de freinage, une perte de puissance au niveau des freins arrière pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le robinet de commande de répartition de la force de freinage.
