CSC Motorcycles is recalling 392 units of its Cyclone model, as the motorcycles might not have a label that reminds the owners to clean the brake reservoir before adding brake fluid. and to use DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container.
The recall affects only 2015 and 2016 CSC Cyclone models, which were manufactured between April 4, 2015 and November 10, 2016, and comes about because the motorcycles thus fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 122, “Motorcycle Brake Systems”.
This is because the absence of this label could lead a CSC Cyclone owner to fill their bike with the wrong brake fluid, which could result in a crash, the recall has been issued.
As such, CSC Motorcycles will notify affected owners, and will provide the customer with the missing label, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin this month, December 2016.
Concerned owners may contact CSC Motorcycles’ customer service department at 1-800-884-4173, and reference CSC’s number for this recall: 16-0023810-18747-10.
