On certain motorcycles, a bolt attaching the drag link to the drop link may fracture. This would allow the rear suspension to drop causing the underside of the mudguard to contact the tire. As a result, the rider may lose control of the motorcycle, causing a crash with injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install a longer drag link bearing sleeve with higher grade hardware.

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 Triumph: 85 in the register, and 377 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2006.
