Concern

Gearbox transmission shaft sprocket may become detached

Defect, as DVSA words it

The steel sprocket stop plate on the gearbox transmission shaft is too soft. Premature wear of this part could cause the sprocket to come adrift. This could result in loss of drive or in exceptional cases the chain could become entangled with the rear wheel.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Replace the sprocket stop plate with a quality assured type.

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 the reference DVSA lists is too short to match safely. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
