On certain motorcycles equipped with Suzuki Accessory Sidebags, the rear side reflex reflectors do not comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. This could render the vehicle less visible to other motorists during hours of darkness, possibly resulting in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install additional rear side reflex reflectors on the sidebags and, if necessary, relocate the existing reflectors.
