| Type | Improvement Campaign (manufacturer improvement measure / 改善対策) |
| Date filed | February 17, 2005 |

| Vehicles affected | 24,129 units |
Issue
The waterproof boot fitted to the adjuster section of the throttle cable was manufactured using material contaminated with a foreign substance. Atmospheric ozone degrades the boot during service, allowing water to enter the cable interior during rain or wet-weather riding. In cold temperatures, the intruded water may freeze and, in the worst case, prevent the throttle grip from returning to the closed position, causing engine speed to remain elevated.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the waterproof boot. If the boot is damaged, replace the complete throttle cable assembly with a new part. If the boot is not damaged, replace the waterproof boot alone with a new part.

状況
スロットルケーブルのアジャスター部に装着された防水ブーツの材料に異材が混入したものを使用したため、使用過程で大気中のオゾン劣化により当該ブーツが損傷し、雨天走行等により、ケーブル内部に水が浸入するものがある。そのため、低温時に浸入した水が凍結し、最悪の場合、アクセルグリップが戻らなくなり、エンジンの回転が下がらなくなるおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、防水ブーツを点検し、ブーツが損傷しているものはスロットルケーブル一式を良品と交換する。ブーツが損傷していないものは防水ブーツのみを良品と交換する。
