NHTSA recall 04E030000 · announced April 19, 2004 · Pro-street · 103 units affected

The problem

PRO-STREET "V-STLYE" CONVENTIONAL SWINGARM MOTORCYCLE FRAMES PRODUCED FROM APRIL 2002 THROUGH JULY 15, 2003. THE SUBJECT MOTORCYCLE FRAMES WERE BUILT WITH FREE-FLOATING SWINFARM LEFT-SIDE PIVOT BOLT SPACERS. DUE TO INADEQUATE PIVOT BOLT SUPPORT, THIS DESIGN ALLOWS THE PIVOT BOLT TO DEFLECT AND POSSIBLY FRACTURE.

The risk

IN THIS EVENT, THE REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT WILL BE AFFECTED AND THE DRIVER COULD LOOSE CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE, POSSIBLE RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH.

What to do

PRO-STREET WILL NOTIFY ITS OWNERS AND REPAIR THE MOTORCYCLES WITH 1.75" DIAMETER SPACER FREE OF CHARGE. OWNER NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING APRIL 2004. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR MOTORCYCLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT PRO-STREET AT 918-652-9606.
