4 recalls across 1 model year
The Honda CB1000SP has 4 recalls, all affecting 2025 model year motorcycles, with the most serious being a piston and rod bearing defect that can cause the rear wheel to lock up suddenly or allow engine oil to leak onto hot exhaust components, raising the risk of a crash or fire.
Two of the four recalls involve the rear wheel locking up, and they overlap in consequence. Beyond the piston issue, a separate engine manufacturing defect can cause excessive oil consumption, leading to engine failure and sudden rear wheel lockup while riding. There is also a fuel feed hose that can disconnect from the tank, spilling fuel near the rear tire or onto ignition sources and creating both a crash and fire risk. The fourth recall involves the gearshift pedal pivot bolt, which can loosen and fall off, leaving the rider unable to change gears while in motion.
