What are the defects?
Due to a manufacturing fault, the motorcycle’s drive chain joining link may dislodge, which can cause the chain to detach from the rear sprocket.
What are the hazards?
If the drive chain detaches, the motorcycle may experience loss in vehicle control. This can increase the risk of an accident, causing serious injury or death to the rider and bystanders.
What should consumers do?
Consumers should contact their nearest Honda motorcycle dealer and arrange for their motorcycle to be inspected and repaired at their earliest opportunity.
For further information, consumers should contact their authorised Honda Motorcycle Dealer directly or contact the Customer Relations Department on 1300 559 846 (Monday to Friday, 8:30am – 6pm) or email [email protected] or via the website https://motorcycles.honda.com.au/contactus
