What’s wrong with it?
THE FRONT SPROCKET NUT FAILURE COULD CAUSE AXIAL MOVEMENT AND INTERFERENCE WHICH COULD RESULT IN TRANSMISSION LOCKUP, INCREASING THE RISK OF LOSS OF CONTROL OR CRASH.
ON CERTAIN MOTORCYCLES EQUIPPED WITH A GATES DRIVE BELT SYSTEM, THE FRONT SPROCKET MAY WEAR BETWEEN THE SPROCKET AND ITS RETAINING NUT, CAUSING THE FRONT SPROCKET NUT TO LOOSEN AND FAIL TO RETAIN THE SPROCKET.

- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
