On certain motorcycles, the front brake master cylinder may have a defective hydraulic circuit allowing air to be introduced into the brake system. This could result in degraded front brake performance, which would increase stopping distances, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the front master cylinder pushrod and boot assembly.
