Honda is recalling 1,561 of its 2020-2021 CRF1100 Africa Twin motorcycles equipped with a dual-clutch transmission (DCT). A software error in the Engine Control Unit (ECU) can cause a communication failure that suddenly releases the clutch. This defect can lead to an unexpected engine stall or a complete loss of drive power while the motorcycle is in motion. Owners should contact an authorized Honda dealer to receive a free software update to resolve the issue.
If the clutch unexpectedly releases due to the software error, the motorcycle may stall or lose drive power without warning. This loss of propulsion can suddenly leave a rider vulnerable in traffic, significantly increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
