The hazard
On certain motorcycles, vibrations that occur when underway could cause the front brake lines to suffer damage and develop a leak. Brake fluid leakage could ultimately result in loss of front braking capability which, depending on traffic conditions and the rider's reactions, could result in a crash causing personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the front brake lines.
