The 2019 Honda GL1800 has two recalls, both serious: the engine can stall without warning, and in one case the rear wheel can lock up simultaneously, raising the risk of a crash.
One recall involves the fuel pump, where an internal component can deform and cause the pump to stop delivering fuel, cutting engine power while riding. The other involves a bolt on the crankshaft's primary drive gear that can break, stalling the engine and locking the rear wheel at the same time, which can cause a sudden loss of control.
