Transport Canada recall 2015527
5 November 2015
Transport Canada lists: C 600 2012–2015 · C650gt 2012–2015
What is wrong
On certain motorcycles, the front brake hose could fatigue and crack due to tight left turning manoeuvres. The outer protective covering of the brake hose may kink due to excessive bending stress, causing the outer jacket of the brake line to crack, potentially resulting in a brake fluid leak. If brake fluid leakage occurs, the maximum front brake pressure may not be able to be applied. This would also increase stopping distances and could affect braking control, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.
What the dealer will do
Dealers will replace the front brake hose with one of an improved design.
