The risk
The product poses a risk of burns because there is a possibility that the left silencer protector of the MT-03 model’s exhaust pipe will melt, because its design is not suitable for the high temperatures that occur in the part during use. The distance between the protector and the silencer is not sufficient to prevent the effects of the heat.
Product: Motorcycles with the following chassis numbers: RMO24000000301 to RMO24000006814 RMO24000000301 to RMO24000006814 RMO24000008001 to RMO24000009153RMO24000008001 to RMO24000009153.
