On certain motorcycles, bending or kinking of the braided metal throttle cable could eventually result in a significantly increased operating effort in order to open and close the throttle with the twist grip. This could lead to reduced driver control. Correction: Vehicle will be inspected and throttle cable and support replaced if required.
