What are the defects?

The voltage setting applied to the LED Control Unit (LCU) is inadequate. 

As a result, oxide may be generated on the contact surface resulting in an 

increase in the contact resistance, causing the switch to fail. This may 

result in the turn signal light, hazard signal and high beam not operating 

as intended.

What are the hazards?

A non-operational signal light, hazard light and high beam may increase the 

risk of an accident, resulting in injury to occupants of the vehicle and other 

road users.

What should consumers do?

Consumers should contact their nearest Honda dealer and arrange for their 

motorcycle to be inspected and repaired at their earliest opportunity.
