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.
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 2006355.
