• 10108522Service bulletin - Honda Motor Co., Ltd is conducting a Safety Recall of motorcycles and scooters listed in the AFFECTED UNITS section of this bulletin. Honda has determined that a defect within certain starter relay switch assemblies can cause an increase in resistance at the main fuse, potentially interrupting battery voltage to the electrical system which can cause the engine to A) not start or B) stall while riding. In an extreme case, the increased resistance at the main fuse may cause the starter relay switch to catch on fire.

An interruption of electrical system battery voltage can cause the engine to a) not start or b) stall while riding. In an extreme case, the increased resistance at the main fuse can cause the starter relay switch to catch on fire. An engine that stalls while riding increases the risk of a crash.
