Recall 92V062000

Service Brakes, Hydraulic › Foundation Components › Disc › Caliper — Honda · reported 23 Apr 1992 · 1,254 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

THERE IS INADEQUATE CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE FRONT DISC PADS AND THE CALIPER ASSEMBLY. HEAT BUILD UP CAN CAUSE THE BRAKE PAD BACKING PLATE TO EXPAND AND BIND IN THE CALIPER. THE BRAKE PADS WILL CONTINUOUSLY CONTACT THE BRAKE ROTOR, OVERHEATING THE FRONT ROTOR.

The risk

THE EXPANSION OF THE BRAKE PAD BACKING PLATE WILL CAUSETHE BRAKE PADS TO CONTINUOUSLY CONTACT THE BRAKE ROTOR AND OVERHEAT THE FRONTROTOR; CAUSING THE FRONT BRAKE ROTOR TO DISTORT, DECREASING BRAKE PERFORMANCEAND CAUSING LONGER STOPPING DISTANCES WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT.

The fix

INSPECT AND REPLACE DEFECTIVE BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS IF NECESSARY.

SYSTEM: BRAKES.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MOTORCYCLE.
