SAFETY RECALL
2010-2016 VT750 SERIES - BANK ANGLE SENSOR REPLACEMENT
(Interim Bulletin, final bulletin will be available January 8, 2016)
Honda is launching a Safety Recall of 20102016 model year VT750C/CA/CS, VT750C2/
C2F/C2S, and VT750C2B motorcycles for a
potentially defective bank angle sensor.
Honda has determined that engine vibration
may cause the bank angle sensor's wiring to
rub on a wire harness connector. Continuous
vibration between the bank angle sensor wiring and the wire harness connector may create an open in the bank angle sensor electrical
circuit. If an open in the bank angle sensor
electrical circuit develops, the engine may
stall while riding.
An updated bank angle sensor is available to
correct this condition.
Safety Consequence
An engine that stalls while riding increases
the risk of a crash.
CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION
During the month of January 2016, Honda will
mail a letter to all owners of affected motorcycles informing them that their motorcycle is
being recalled for a safety related defect. The
customer will be made aware of the safety
risk and advised to have a Honda dealer
replace the bank angle sensor.
DEALER INVENTORY
Do not sell any un-repaired units.
According to federal law, any affected units in
your new inventory cannot be sold or leased
until they are repaired with a replacement
bank angle sensor, and Honda policy prohibits the sale of new or used un-repaired units.
To search for applicable recalls on a specific
unit, refer to Unit Information on i/V.
To manage your affected inventory, use eResponsibility Report on i/V.
See AFFECTED UNITS on Pages 2 and 3.
