Summary

This recall involves approximately 780 model year 2019 KTM 50 SX and Husqvarna TC 50 closed course/competition motorcycles. These motorcycles are being recalled because the throttle can become stuck in the open position, which can cause the rider to lose control and crash. KTM and Husqvarna are offering a free repair to all affected owners to fix this defect. These motorcycles were sold at authorized dealers nationwide between March 2018 and December 2018 for about $4,300.

Risk

The throttle mechanism can malfunction and remain stuck in the open position, preventing the rider from slowing down. This creates a severe risk of the rider losing control and crashing, though no incidents or injuries have been reported to date.
