⚠ Safety Recalls (1)

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING Dec 2015 · 15V874000

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain model year 2012-2014 VT750CA, VT750C2 and VT750C2F, 2011-2016 VT750C, 2013-2016 VT750CS, 2010-2016 VT750C2B and 2013-2014 VT750C2S motorcycles. Engine vibration may cause the bank angle sensor wire to rub on the wire harness joint connector, resulting in a loss of the sensor signal.

Risk: Without the bank angle sensor signal, the engine may stall while riding, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will relocate the joint connector and replace the bank angle sensor, free of charge. The recall began on January 25, 2016. Owners may contact Honda Motorcycle customer service at 1-866-784-1870. Honda's number for this recall is JW7.
