Equipment

Affected:

Defect:

Motion pro is recalling 10,000 aftermarket brake levers, model no. 14-0415, sold for use on certain my 1999 through 2008 suzuki and my 1998 through 2003 yamaha motorcycles. the lobe height on some of these levers are smaller and do not properly engage the stomp lamp switch which will not deactivate when the driver releases the brake lever. the lever can be identified by the marking "jy 378" at the base of the lever near the pivot bushing.
