The issue
On certain motorcycles, corrosion could form inside the front brake master cylinder, which could cause a spongy brake feel. This could potentially lead to extended stopping distances, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will install a redesigned front brake master cylinder.
Description (français)
Sur certaines motocyclettes, de la corrosion pourrait se former à l'intérieur du maître-cylindre du frein avant, ce qui pourrait causer une impression de pédale de frein molle. Ceci pourrait éventuellement augmenter les distances de feinage, ce qui augmenterait les risques d'accident et pourrait entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront poser un maître-cylindre du frein avant remodelé.
