The hazard

On certain motorcycles, the timing chain tensioner may have been manufactured incorrectly and could allow the timing chain tension to loosen, causing an audible noise. If the motorcycle is operated in this state, this could eventually result in engine breakdown and a loss of motive power, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the timing chain tensioner.
