GS 1200 richiamo per paramani ?

[Paoloxx]

Leggo e riporto - qualcuno ne sa qualcosa - sono sconcertato

Type/number of model: Model R1200GS, type R12

Description: Concerns motorcycles built between December 2002 and October 2007.

Country of origin: Germany

Injuries

The product poses a risk of injuries because in the event of inappropriate handling, such as pulling roughly, hitting objects while manoeuvring, or if the motorcycle falls over, the hand protector on the handlebar controls can twist. It could then touch the handbrake or clutch control causing brake or clutch malfunction. In addition, if the twisted hand protector lightly touches and operates the handbrake control, the brake linings may touch the brake disc and the resulting heat generation would cause the brake pressure to build up which could slow down the front wheel, even so far as to block it.

Three incidents reported.


The corrective action taken by the manufacturer is a sticker for the handguards and a supplement for the manual:
