On certain motorcycles, the upper half of the throttle housing assembly may have been manufactured incorrectly, which could prevent the throttle from opening and closing normally. This could result in a loss of vehicle propulsion, or make it difficult to slow or stop the vehicle. Either issue could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the upper half of the throttle housing assembly.
