2001 Honda Cbr929rr

Component

Power Train:Clutch Assembly

Consequence of Defect

vehicle description: motorcycles. when the clutch lever is released to the friction point, but the lever is not completely released to fully engage the clutch, strong clutch disk vibration may occur at the higher engine rpms used for rapid or race-type starts. this stress can cause the clutch to fail.

Corrective Action

this failure results in several large sections cracking and eventually separating from the clutch outer. if this occurs, rear lock-up is possible if a broken piece is caught in the primary drive gear. also, the engine could lose primary ignition and stop suddenly if a broken piece damages the pulsar rotor; or engine oil could leak from the crankcase, if a broken piece is forced through the crankcase. the spilled oil could cause the rear wheel to lose traction and the motorcycle could crash.

Recall Notes

dealers will install a clutch kit that includes a redesigned outer clutch basket, judder spring, clutch lifter lever, and other parts intended to reduce stress on the clutch.

Component

Fuel System, Gasoline:Delivery:Hoses, Lines/Piping, And Fittings

Consequence of Defect

vehicle description: motorcycles. an improper service procedure that may be used during routine maintenance can damage a pressurized fuel hose. lifting the front of the fuel tank beyond a certain point can stress and damage the hose. the internally damaged hose could eventually crack, resulting in a high-pressure fuel leak.

Corrective Action

fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.

Recall Notes

dealers will replace the fuel hose with a longer fuel hose.
