The risk
The product poses a risk of injuries because when the throttle remains open there is a build-up of dirt on the controls of the motorcycle. This means that the intake of fuel is not shut off, making it impossible for the motorcycle to reduce its speed.
Product: Motorcycle with two-cylinder V-2 engine, 839 c.c.
