What is wrong

On certain motorcycles, the rear brake linkage is susceptible to corrosion which can cause binding and rough brake operation. As corrosion increases, it can cause a sticking pedal or require high brake pedal effort.

The risk

Linkage could break resulting in a loss of rear brake function which could increase the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the spherical rod end and associated parts. This recall began on august 4, 2004. Owners should contact honda at 1-[removed].

Notes from the manufacturer

Recall no. P40.customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-[removed]).
