Concern

Rear brake may become inoperative

Defect, as DVSA words it

It has been identified that under certain riding conditions vibrations transmitted from the chassis to the rear brake hydraulic lines can create a phenomenon whereby gas is released from the brake fluid which can then collect in pockets in the brake lines. Any pockets of gas within the hydraulic circuit of the rear brake will significantly reduce the effectiveness of the system and in extreme cases will render the rear brake inoperative.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recalled machines will have the original rear brake lines removed and replaced with superseded items that are designed to follow a different routing from the master cylinder to the rear brake caliper via the ABS modulator.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

The same recall in other registers

No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference, because DVSA lists none for this recall. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
