Is my product affected?

Motorcycle - Buell

  • Brand Buell

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Buell motorcycles are subject to a recall due to a hazard with the front brake line. Specifically, the front brake line on certain models may come into contact with the front tire, which could wear a hole in the brake line and cause brake fluid to leak. This brake fluid leakage could potentially lead to an accident.

The recall affects three specific groups of motorcycles: 1125R models from 2008 manufactured between October 30, 2007 and July 17, 2008; XB12R models from 2009 manufactured between July 2, 2008 and February 12, 2009; and XB12Scg models from 2009 manufactured between July 1, 2008 and February 10, 2009. The importer is taking voluntary corrective actions to address this issue, though the source does not specify what remedy is available to affected consumers or what actions they should take.
