Defect

On certain motorcycles, the ignition modules are oriented within the battery tray in a way that makes the ignition module susceptible to vibration.

Safety risk

This susceptibility to vibration may contribute to a stalling condition that could occur without any prior warning and result in a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will install a new ignition module mounting system free of charge. The recall began on august 25, 2006. Owners may contact big dog at 316-267-9121.
