Oil leaks prompt BMW S 1000 RR recall

Leave a comment

Oil leaks from cracks in the rubber hose of the BMW S 1000 RR’s oil cooler have prompted an Australian recall on the 2019 model.

The official notice from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission says the oil leak may spray on to the rear wheel of the motorcycle “increasing the risk of an accident or serious injury to the rider and other road users”.

Owners should contact an authorised BMW Motorrad dealer, or call the BMW Group Australia Customer Interaction Centre on freecall 1800 813 299 to arrange for inspection and replacement of the oil cooler, where required.

The recall on oil leaks affects 77 bikes. The full list of Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) is included at the end of this article.

BMW Motorrad Australia has only made one other recall this year for the Indian-made G 310 motorcycles and new C 400 scooters last month over a problem with rusty brakes.

Consumers can also contact BMW Australia via the BMW Motorrad Australia Website.

Even though manufacturers and importers contact owners when a recall is issued, the bike may have been sold privately to a rider unknown to the company.

Therefore, Motorbike Writer publishes all motorcycle recalls as a service to all riders.

In Australia, recall notices are issued by the manufacturer and the Department of Infrastructure through a voluntary industry code under the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.

While any recall is not good news for the manufacturer, it shows that they are largely diligent in fixing problems.

Despite hundreds of recalls by various automotive manufacturers, only the Takata airbag recall has ever been mandatory.  All others have been issued by the manufacturer.

Dragging brake

The official notice filed wth the Australian Competition and Consumers Commission says the front brake master cylinders “may cause the front brakes to drag or bind, affecting handling and brake performance”.

“Reduced brake performance and motorcycle handling increases the risk of accident or injury to the rider(s) and other road users,” the notice says.

Owners of bikes with the dragging brake issue should contact their authorised Aprilia or Moto Guzzi dealers to book their vehicle for inspection and, if necessary, replacement of the front brake master cylinder, free of charge.

For more information, contact the nearest authorised Aprilia or Moto Guzzi dealer or email [email protected]

BMW G 310, C 400 recall on rusty brakes

Leave a comment

BMW Motorrad Australia is recalling Indian-made G 310 motorcycles and new C 400 scooters over a problem with rusty brakes.

In an unusual official recall, issued through the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, BMW blames road surface conditions for the problem.

“Due to road treatment conditions, such as aggressive salt types or significant usage, surface corrosion could occur within the un-anodised brake calliper piston bore,” the notice says.

“Corrosion on the surface of the brake calliper could impair the piston’s clearance within the bore, affecting brake performance and posing a risk of an accident and serious injury to the rider and other road users.”

It is surprising that any vehicle is released with “un-anodised” brake callipers.

BMW advises owners of 2017-2019 G 310 GS (K02), G 310 R (K03), C 400 GT (K08) and C 400 X (K09) to contact an authorised BMW Service Centre or call the BMW Group Customer Interaction Centre on 1800 813 299 to arrange a free repair.

A full list of the Vehicle Identification Numbers of the 573 vehicles that could be affected by rusty brakes is included at the end of this article.

Consumers can also contact BMW Australia via the BMW Motorrad Australia Website.

In July last year BMW recalled 780 G 310 models over faulty side stands.

Even though manufacturers and importers contact owners when a recall is issued, the bike may have been sold privately to a rider unknown to the company.

Therefore, Motorbike Writer publishes all motorcycle recalls as a service to all riders.

In Australia, recall notices are issued by the manufacturer and the Department of Infrastructure through a voluntary industry code under the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.

While any recall is not good news for the manufacturer, it shows that they are largely diligent in fixing problems.

Despite hundreds of recalls by various automotive manufacturers, only the Takata airbag recall has ever been mandatory.  All others have been issued by the manufacturer.

If you believe there is an endemic problem with your bike that should be recalled, contact the ACCC on 1300 302 502.

Second recall for Harley-Davidson saddlebags

Leave a comment

Harley-Davidson Australia has again issued a recall over the possibility of their saddlebags falling off.

In 2015 they issued a recall for their Touring models because the standard saddlebags could fall off.

It was unfortunately too late for me as we lost the right saddlebag off a Road King while touring in New Zealand. Thankfully nothing valuable was lost.

Accessory saddelbags

While Harley fixed that problem on its Touring models, they are now having a similar problem with the latches working their way loose on accessory bags.

They say the latching arm may become “disengaged from the mounting plate or bracket”.

“The latching arm could rotate out of the locked position and the saddlebag may become separated from the motorcycle while it is in motion, posing a road hazard for other motorists,” the recall notice says.

The part numbers for the affected saddlebags are: 90201561, 90201552, 90201644, 90201645, 90201555 and 90201513.Harley Saddlebags recall

Owners of affected saddlebags should contact their nearest Harley dealership to arrange an inspection and free fix.

In then meantime, we suggest you tape that latch down so it doesn’t come loose.

Interestingly, Harley has issued the warning itself before the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has had time to post their recall which can often be delayed for a couple of weeks.

It’s typical of Harley to get on the front foot over recall issues. Last year Harley had only two recalls. This is their second recall this year.

We expect the official notice to show up soon on the ACCC’s website.

Even though manufacturers and importers contact owners when a recall is issued, the bike may have been sold privately to a rider unknown to the company.

Therefore, Motorbike Writer publishes all motorcycle recalls as a service to all riders.

If you believe there is an endemic problem with your bike that should be recalled, contact the ACCC on 1300 302 502.

Yamaha recall bikes over missing sticker

Leave a comment

Yamaha Motor Australia has recalled 1193 MT-07 and XSR700 models for a missing exhaust noise compliance sticker. 

The official notice issued through the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission says correct Stationary Noise Data labels were not fitted to these motorcycles in production.

It is a requirement of the Australian Design Rule ADR 83 for the sticker to be attached to each motorcycle.

Riders risk being fined by police for non-compliance.

Obviously, you could successfully fight such a fine, but it would be an inconvenience.

Easy fix

Owners have been advised to “immediately contact their local Yamaha Dealer and arrange to have the label attached at no charge”.

In the meantime, we suggest you keep a copy of this article on hand to show to police if they intend to issue a notice.

Click here to see a complete list of vehicle identification numbers for the 1193 affected bikes. 

Consumers can find their nearest authorised Yamaha dealership by clicking here.

The MT-907 and XSR700 were also recalled last year for loose chain protector bolts.

Missing stickers

It is not the first time motorcycles have been recalled for a missing noise sticker.

In 2016, Braaap motorcycles were recalled over the sticker issue and last year several Triumph models were recalled for the missing noise sticker.

Even though manufacturers and importers contact owners when a recall is issued, the bike may have been sold privately to a rider unknown to the company.

Therefore, Motorbike Writer publishes all motorcycle recalls as a service to all riders.

If you believe there is an endemic problem with your bike that should be recalled, contact the ACCC on 1300 302 502.

Ducati recalls Panigale V4 for fifth time

Leave a comment

Ducati has now recalled a variant of the Panigale V4 for the fifth time with four recalls in its first year of production.

On this occasion, it’s for a fuel leak in the 2018-19 Panigale V4 range and the 2019 Panigale V4 R, totalling 445 motorcycles in Australia.

Australian owners of the affected bikes will be sent a letter requesting them to contact their closest Ducati dealer or service agent “as soon as possible”.

Owners will be asked to make an appointment for an update of the motorcycle’s fuel tank ventilation system.

They will also receive a sticker with warning/instructions on how to correctly open the fuel cap.

Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) of all affected bikes are listed at the end of this article or click here.

Fifth recall notice

It is the fifth official notice has issued through the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.

The notice says the fuel tank ventilation system “may be defective and cause pressure to build in the tank, resulting in fuel potentially spraying out of the tank when the fuel cap is opened”.

Even though manufacturers and importers contact owners when a recall is issued, the bike may have been sold privately to a rider unknown to the company.

Therefore, Motorbike Writer publishes all motorcycle recalls as a service to all riders.

Piaggio Zip scooters recalled on throttle fault

Leave a comment

Piaggio Australia has recalled 54 2018 ZIP 50 4T scooters over a throttle fault that could cause the scooter to slow down quickly.

The official Australian Competition and Consumer Commission recall notice says the fault could increase the “risk of an accident or injury to the rider”.

It says the throttle control cable on the Zip scooters may break and advises owner to contact their nearest authorised Piaggio dealer and arrange a time for the throttle cable to be modified or replaced free of charge.

To find your nearest dealer, click here.

Vehicle identification numbers (VINs) of all affected scooters are listed at the end of this article.

Even though manufacturers and importers usually contact owners when a recall is issued, the bike may have been sold privately to a rider unknown to the company.

Therefore, Motorbike Writer publishes all motorcycle and scooter recalls as a service to all riders.

If you believe there is an endemic problem with your bike that should be recalled, contact the ACCC on 1300 302 502.

Yamaha recalls learners over breaking brakes

Leave a comment

Yamaha Motor Australia has recalled 124 R3 and MT-03 (pictured above) learner motorcycles over possible breaking front brakes.

The official recall notice, issued through the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission says that when “strong gripping force is applied to the front brake lever, it may break”.

“If the front brake lever breaks while the motorcycle is being ridden, the rider will lose all brake functionality at the front of the motorcycle, increasing the risk of an accident and serious injury to the rider and other road users,” the notice says.

Owners of affected motorcycles should contact their local Yamaha Dealer to arrange an inspection and have the brake lever replaced, where required.

The vehicle identification of all 124 affected bikes are listed at the end of this article.

Honda recalls learners over wheel locking

Leave a comment

Honda Motorcycles Australia has recalled 183 of their learner motorcycles over an issue which could cause locking of the rear wheel.

The recall notice, issued through the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) affects the 2019 CBF300N, 2018 CBR300R (pictured above) and 2017 CRF250L.

Vehicle identification numbers of affected bikes are listed at the end of this article.

“The groove on the main shaft was incorrectly manufactured and is oversized, possibly resulting in the circlip loosening and causing gear damage,” the ACCC notice says.

“If the gear is damaged, the motorcycle may stall or lock by the rear wheel, increasing the risk of an accident and serious injuries to road users.”

Owners have been advised to contact their nearest Honda Motorcycle Dealer and arrange for an inspection and repair at no charge.

For help finding a Honda dealer, consumers can go to http://www.honda.com.au

Suzuki recalls GSX250R over brake light issue

Leave a comment

Suzuki Australia has recalled 360 learner-approved GSX250R motorcycles over a brake light failure that “may increase the risk of an accident”.

The official recall notice issued by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission says that “due to the improper materials used in the production of the brake light switch, the switch may corrode if exposed to water”.

“If the brake light switch corrodes and continues to be used, it may short circuit and no longer activate,” the notice says.

“The inactive brake light may increase the risk of an accident, resulting in injury to the rider.”

Owners  of the affected GSX250R models will be contacted by direct mail. They will be asked to contact their nearest authorised Suzuki dealer to arrange for an inspection and free repair of the vehicle.

In case the bike has since changed hands, we have published this notice as a public service.

For more information, consumers can find their nearest authorised Suzuki Dealer at http://www.suzukimotorcycles.com.au/dealers

The Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) of the affected GSX250R motorcycles mnade from 2015 to 2019 are listed at the end of this article.

Even though manufacturers and importers usually contact owners when a recall is issued, the bike may have been sold privately to a rider unknown to the company.

Therefore, Motorbike Writer publishes all motorcycle and scooter recalls as a service to all riders.

If you believe there is an endemic problem with your bike that should be recalled, contact the ACCC on 1300 302 502.
