- Risk
- This can result in reduction of the motorcycle's dynamic stability resulting in loss of control of the motorcycle.
- Remedy
- Dealers will remove the bearing pin, apply a stronger adhesive and reassemble with an increased torque specification. The flange nut on the front strut will be replaced with a self-tightening nut.
