Recall 05V-010: 2002–2003 Honda CBR1100XX, 2002–2004 Honda GL1800 and 5 more
HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) recall for service brakes, hydraulic, reported to NHTSA on Jan 24, 2005, covering about 36,046 vehicles.
The problem
Certain motorcycles equipped with combined-brake systems have a proportioning control valve (Pcv) that mechanically proportions brake force when the rear brake is applied. A seal in some pcvs is improperly shaped, and brake fluid leakage may occur.
The risk
If the motorcycle continues to be used after a leak occurs, the rear brake would eventually become inoperative. A loss of rear brake force could increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will inspect the rear brake forleakage. If leakage is confirmed, the dealer will replace the pcv free of charge. The recall began on january 31, 2005. Owners may contact honda at 866-784-1870.
