2018 Honda CRF250R- 250cc off-road competition motorcycle
Why it was recalled
If the motorcycle is used continuously at high speed, the heat generated may cause the clutch basket to break.
Hazard
If the clutch basket breaks, the broken pieces may become lodged between the gears in the transmission, causing it to lock up suddenly. This may cause the rear wheel to lock up and the motorcycle to lose stability. If the motorcycle loses stability, the rider may be thrown from the motorcycle, resulting in death or serious injury.
