AIRBAG INFLATOR BODY MAY RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT
RM/2018/010 · 1 Mar 2018
1 Mar 2018Defect
In the event that the airbag is activated it may overinflate due to overly aggressive combustion of the propellant. As a result the excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator body to rupture and metal fragments may pass through the cushion material causing severe injury to the rider.
Remedy
On affected machines replace the airbag assembly.

AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY CORRECTLY
RM/2017/004 · 13 Apr 2017
13 Apr 2017Defect
The propellant used in the subject air bag inflators may degrade over time due to heat cycles and exposure to moisture. In the event that the airbag is activated it may overinflate due to overly aggressive combustion of the propellant. The excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator body to rupture and metal fragments may pass through the cushion material causing severe injury to the rider and / or in worst cases a fatality.
Remedy
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the airbag.

REAR BRAKE MAY APPLY UNEXPECTEDLY AND CREATE FIRE RISK
RM/2015/037 · 4 Dec 2015
4 Dec 2015Defect
The check valve orifice in the brake system may block with deposits resulting in rear brake drag. The unexpected braking/dragging increases the risk of a crash and continued riding may generate sufficient heat to cause fire.
Remedy
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and drain the complete brake system. Replace the secondary master cylinder and rear brake master cylinder. Flush the brake system and then refill and bleed.

REAR BRAKE MAY OVERHEAT WITH A POSSIBILITY OF FIRE
RM/2011/030 · 13 Feb 2012
13 Feb 2012Defect
It is possible under certain conditions for the compensator port in the Dual Combined Brake System Secondary Master Cylinder to block. This will allow the rear brake to drag with the attendant increase in temperature which eventually could lead to a fire.
Remedy
Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to inspect the free play of the Secondary Master Cylinder using a special tool to ensure there is no blocking of the port and if necessary replace the Secondary Master Cylinder with a modified part.
