Concern

Rear shock absorber mounting may fail

Defect, as DVSA words it

The rear shock absorber (suspension damper) front mounting bracket may crack and allow the shock absorber to become partly detached. This could affect the safe control of the motorcycle.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall affected motorcycles and fit a new shock absorber mounting bracket.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

The same recall in other registers

No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference, because DVSA lists none for this recall. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
