The issue
On certain motorcycles, the chain roll pin roller (between the fuel tank and the top chain run) could break. If fragments become lodged between the chain and pinion, it could cause the rear wheel to lock, which could result in a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the bracket of the top chain take-up roller.
Description (français)
Sur certaines motocyclettes, le rouleau de goupille cylindrique de chaîne entre le réservoir de carburant et le guide-chaîne supérieur pourrait se briser et la roue arrière pourrait se coincer si des fragments allaient se loger entre la chaîne et le pignon, ce qui pourrait entraîner un accident. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le support du tendeur de chaîne du haut.
