The risk
The motorcycles are equipped with controller firmware which responds to rare signal errors and affects engine control performance. If one of these errors occurs while riding the motorcycle, the controller could inadvertently cause the engine to cut out regardless of engine mode, leading to an accident.
Product: The vehicles in question were manufactured in 2012 and 2013. Dealers are providing information about the recall under code SV-ZMC R -059.
