Concern

It may be possible to ride the motorcycle with the side stand down.

Defect, as DVSA words it

An incorrectly welded pivot piece on the side stand may prevent the side stand cut out switch from operating.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall likely to be affected machines and inspect the side stand where necessary a quality assured side stand will be fitted.

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.
