Structure: frame and members
- What is wrong
- On some motorcycles, the rear fender front mounting tabs securing the rear fender can fracture, causing the rear fender to break away from the frame and drop onto the rear tire.
- Risk
- This could result in tire damage and unintended braking action.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the welded tabs that partially support the rear fender, located under the seat, with two bolted-on fender clamps. The fender will be removed from the bike so that the mounting holes for the clamp can be drilled and then reinstalled with the addition of a backing plate for added rigidity.
