The risk

The rear-wheel suspension push rod may become deformed under load. This may cause jamming of the main-chassis wiring harness or damage to the coolant reservoir and the rear tyre. Moreover, the rear of the motorcycle may collapse under load, which may affect the vehicle's handling characteristics and increase the risk of an accident, leading to injuries. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of two- or three-wheel vehicles and quadricycles.
