Honda 06 & 07 1000rr CBR Recall

Post by R3TARD »

IMPORTANT SAFETY AND EMISSIONS RECALL NOTICE

Dear CBR1000RR Owner:

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act and the California Air Resources Board.

What is the reason for this notice?

Honda Motor Co., Ltd. has decided that a defect that is related to both motor vehicle safety and emissions regulations exists in certain 2006-2007 model year CBR1000RR motorcycles. Some 2006-2007 CBR1000RR motorcycles have an improperly welded vent pipe in the bottom of the fuel tank. Due to vibration the improperly welded tanks may crack and drip fuel.

Safety Consequence

In the presence of an ignition source, dripping fuel poses a risk of fire or explosion.

Emission Consequence

Fuel evaporating into the atmosphere will result in the motorcycle no longer meeting regulations. Your motorcycle may fail a state or local emissions inspection if you do not have this recall repair done.

dont think anyone on here owns one of these but do know we have some prospective buyers right now so FYI

this is what makes the 929 and 954 so appealing (by comparison). ever since the 1000RR's came out there have been various critical recalls and bugs.
