On certain motorcycles, the right rear portion of the lower fairing can interfere with the operator's footwear while applying the rear brake. This could
diminish the operator's control over brake force application or distract the operator, creating the risk of a crash resulting in personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install an updated footrest guard and fairing bracket.

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 Kawasaki: 145 in the register, and 468 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2010.
