On certain motorcycles, the front brake line may be pinched when turning right all the way to the steering stop. A pinched brake line could restrict the flow of brake fluid to the caliper. Also, over time, the pinched hose may crack causing a brake fluid leak. A restricted and/or leaking brake line could reduce braking efficiency resulting in extended stopping distances. Correction: Dealers will install a plastic bracket to protect the front brake line.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2004316.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Ducati: 89 in the register, and 449 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2004.
