What the ministry says is wrong
燃料タンク取り付け部において、固定ナットの緩み止めが不適切なため、ナットが緩むことがある。そのため、ハンドルを操作した際に固定ボルトがフロントフォークと接触し、ハンドルの可動域が制限される、又は固定ナット及び当該ボルトが脱落するおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、固定用ナットに緩み止め剤を塗布し、規定トルクで締め付ける。The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

Reading this against the source
This page is what MLIT published in the recall notices it publishes, 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 /japan, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Japanese recalls on a BMW: 409 in the register, and 372 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2010.
