2003 HONDA CBR600RRTransport Canada Recall #2004285
The official notice
Defect
On certain motorcycles, the spherical rod end, which is part of the linkage connecting the rear brake pedal to the rear brake master cylinder, is susceptible to corrosion, which can cause binding and rough brake operation. The spherical rod end is enclosed in a rubber boot that encapsulates and conceals the corrosion; however, degrading brake performance should be noticeable to the rider. In the worst case, the spherical rod end could break which would result in a loss of rear brake function.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the spherical rod end and associated parts.
