Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
CFMOTO is recalling certain CF250T V3 and CF205T V5 automatic motorcycles manufactured between January 1, 2005, and December 31, 2009. These motorcycles were built with a left-hand rear wheel brake instead of the required right-foot operated rear wheel brake, which violates federal motorcycle control standards and may hinder the operator's ability to brake effectively, increasing the risk of a crash.
CFMOTO will notify owners, and authorized dealers will install a right foot control rear wheel brake kit free of charge. The recall began on January 10, 2012. Affected owners should contact CFMOTO at 1-888-823-6686 to arrange service at a dealer.
