On certain motorcycles, certain suspension components, specifically the right hand bearing pin in the rear swinging arm and the lower flange nut on the front strut may loosen. This could impair the motorcycle's dynamic stability and result in a possible crash. Correction: Bearing pin will be removed, a stronger adhesive will be applied and pin will be re-assembled with an increased torque specification. The flange nut on the front strut will be replaced with a self-tightening nut.
