The defect
CFMOTO POWERSPORTS, INC. (CFMOTO) is recalling certain 2022-2023 700CL-X motorcycles. The ABS control module software settings may delay braking when the hand brake lever is squeezed two or more times, and therefore lengthen the distance required to stop the motorcycle.
The risk
Delayed braking can extend the distance required to stop, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will update the ABS software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 5, 2023. Owners may contact CFMOTO customer service Toll Free at (888) 8-CFMOTO (283-6686) or at 1-763-398-2690; or via email at info@cfmotousa.com.
