Defect
The outer sheath material of the front wheel brake cable on motorcycles is unsuitable. At tight bends in the cable routing, repeated flexing in cold conditions causes crack to develop in the outer sheath, tightening the bend further and ultimately fracturing the outer casing spring. Continued use may cause the inner cable to sever at the fracture point, resulting in loss of front wheel brake operation.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the front wheel brake cable with the corrected part.

全車両、前輪ブレーキケーブルを対策品と交換する。
