Honda GL1800 & GL1800B

The risk

The check valve orifice on the braking system is susceptible to becoming blocked resulting in rear wheel brake dragging. Unexpected braking/dragging increases the risk of a crash and continued riding with the rear brake engaged/dragging may generate enough heat to cause the rear brake to catch fire.
