Issue

Certain motorcycles outfitted with the police authority package may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CVMSS) 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. The brake light is deactivated when the "light switch off" function is activated, which is contrary to the requirements of the standard. This would also reduce vehicle conspicuity to following road users, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will update vehicle software to correct the non-compliance.
