Issue
On certain motorcycles, a torsion spring within the transmission could break, making shifting gears difficult or impossible. This could increase the risk of a loss of control that may result in a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the torsion spring with one with a different design. Note: In the interim, owners are advised to stop use until recall repairs are performed.
