KAWASAKI · Motorcycle – rear brake

The product poses a risk of injuries because, due to the shape of the brake pedal, small stones or other road debris can become trapped between the pedal and the rear master cylinder actuating rod. This can overheat the rear brake, potentially leading to damage and locking or failure of the rear brake, causing loss of control or immobilizing the motorcycle.
