The 2019 Kawasaki W800 has 2 recalls, both concerning the same issue: engine vibrations can break the horn wiring harness, leaving the rider without a working horn.
When the horn wiring fails, the rider loses the ability to alert other road users to a hazard, which raises the risk of a crash in situations where a quick warning would otherwise help avoid one.
