All recall notices.

1. BRAKING PERFORMANCE MAY BE REDUCED

   RM/2016/039 · 9 Sep 2016

   9 Sep 2016

   Defect

   Anomalies in the manufacturing process have resulted in certain batches of hand brake cylinders with defective machining. This can lead to early wear of the sealing cup in the hand brake cylinder thus leading to impaired braking performance.

   Remedy

   Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and check the batch number of the hand brake cylinder. If the batch number appears on the affected list replace the hand brake cylinder.

2. CONNECTING ROD MAY FAIL / FRACTURE

   RM/2016/023 · 12 May 2016

   12 May 2016

   Defect

   The connecting rod may fail in early life under certain load conditions. The machines in question are designed to be used off road and as such power request is a factor in the control of the machine. If a connecting rod failure occurs in this type machine the rider may be exposed to significant risk.

   Remedy

   Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the complete crankshaft.

3. FRONT WHEEL MAY FAIL

   RM/2015/042 · 21 Dec 2015

   21 Dec 2015

   Defect

   Due to variations in the spoke manufacturing process some spokes on the front wheel may exhibit quality deviations. Depending on where they are fitted in the wheel care and spoke tension it is possible that individual spokes may break while riding. This can overload the remaining intact spokes and consequently cause them to break which can affected the stability of the machine.

   Remedy

   Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the spokes that are fitted to the front wheel.

4. RISK OF FIRE

   RM/2015/032 · 19 Oct 2015

   19 Oct 2015

   Defect

   The moulded fuel hoses may not be to specification which can lead to fuel leakage. The fuel leakage can cause damage or in the worst case scenario fire.

   Remedy

   Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the fuel hoses.

5. FUEL MAY LEAK

   RM/2015/031 · 19 Oct 2015

   19 Oct 2015

   Defect

   The M12 aluminium fuel pump nut may not be to specification. This can lead to insufficient sealing allowing fuel to leak. In extreme cases the leaking fuel can cause damage or fire.

   Remedy

   Recall the machines that are likely to be affected and replace the M12 aluminium fuel pump nut. Where necessary the seal will also be replaced.
