Transport Canada carries this recall as 2015172, dated 22 April 2015. The American register carries the same defect as campaign 15V216, dated 13 April 2015. They are the same defect because the manufacturer filed both under one internal campaign code, 0165.

The two registers are 9 days apart: the American entry is dated first, the Canadian one second.
These are the dates each register records against its own notice. They are separate administrative acts in two countries, recorded by two authorities under two sets of rules, and this page does not claim that one caused the other or that owners in either country were contacted on those days. What it shows is that the same manufacturer campaign reached the two registers on different dates.
Read the American notice 15V216, including every earlier version of its wording this site holds. The Canadian register explains why the manufacturer code is published there and what that makes possible. Canada and America sets every matched pair side by side.

On certain motorcycles, the hydraulic clutch system may not be able to generate enough lift to disengage the clutch after being parked for an extended period of time, which could result to a loss of control of the vehicle when started in gear or when first shifted into gear. This could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and affect the repairs accordingly.
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 2015172.
