Kawasaki due to a gap between the brake pedal and guard, small stone or debris can become trapped, creating a brake drag.
The short version
KAWASAKI MOTORS CORP., U.S.A. reported a problem with the structure frame and members. Here is what owners need to know.
Due to a gap between the brake pedal and guard, small stone or debris can become trapped, creating a brake drag. This can cause the rear brake to overheat, leading to rear brake damage and lock-up or failure of the rear brakes.
If the brakes lock up or fail, there is an increased risk of a crash.
Kawasaki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear master cylinder rod end and remove the brake guard (if installed), free of charge.
