Rides : Motorcycles - Kawasaki Ninja recall

The North American Division of Kawasaki has announced a recall involving the 2011 made of the Ninja ZX-10R model due to problems involving the wiring harness.

According to the manufacturer, the recall will affect around 2.560 units of the ZX-10R model and the announcement was made by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

This can damage the harness and wiring and result in a short between wires and the frame or within wires, which could result in the engine stopping suddenly”, as the NHTSA explains.
