Issue

The clamping structure of the engine kick-starter lever is improperly designed, allowing the securing bolts and nuts to loosen and develop play. Continued use in this condition may cause the lever to deform and, in the worst case, detach entirely, creating a hazard to other traffic.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the kick-starter lever and bolt with corrected parts. Inspect the kick-starter shaft and replace any unit with damage to the serration with a new part.
