Recall 08V-305: Exterior Lighting

Reported Jul 9, 2008 · 646 vehicles affected · PIAGGIO USA, INC.

Problem: Piaggio is recalling 646 my 2007-2008 moto guzzi norge 1200 motorcycle models equipped with triom headlights, low beam bulb and headlight reflectors. The headlight low beam bulb has a "pigtail" wire attached to it. This wire connects the low beam bulb to the motorcycle's wiring harness. It may touch the hardware used to secure the bulb in the reflector. Over time and vibration the insulation may wear through causing the direct short to ground.
