For scale, 2,111 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 1 year and 8 months.
Defect
On the ignition switch, the wiring harness is routed and secured at an incorrect position, causing the wiring to bend sharply when the steering is turned to full lock. Continued use subjects the wiring to repeated flexing, which may result in a broken wire. In the worst case, the engine may stall and fail to restart.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the ignition switch wiring with the corrected part, relocate the wiring anchor point, and secure the wiring to the right handlebar switch harness with a cable tie.

状況
イグニッションスイッチにおいて、配線の固定位置が不適切なため、ハンドル最大操作時に強く屈曲する箇所がある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、屈曲の繰り返しにより当該配線が断線し、最悪の場合、エンジンが停止し、再始動できなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、イグニッションスイッチの配線を対策品と交換し、配線の固定位置を変更して、結束バンドで右ハンドルスイッチの配線に固定する。
