Zero Motorcycles Inc. is recalling 306 accessory chain kits (part numbers 10-08127 and 10-08140) because the included installation instructions are incorrect. If these instructions were followed, a motor shaft magnet could become dislocated while you are riding, which can cause the motor to behave unexpectedly or even shift into reverse. To fix this safety issue, dealers will install a new motor with a correctly pre-placed sprocket chain kit at no cost to owners.
A dislocated motor shaft magnet can lead to an unexpected motor response, such as the motorcycle suddenly shifting into reverse while in motion, which significantly increases the risk of a crash.
