An official CAA Japan notice concerns Motorcycles (Honda Gold Wing, Gold Wing Tour) - Repair. Engine (drive gear retaining bolt) defect. ■ Defective part (component name): Engine (drive gear retaining bolt). ■ Condition of the structure, equipment or performance considered noncompliant with standards, and its cause: The bolt securing the drive gear to the crankshaft has insufficient durability. During sudden acceleration, excessive stress may concentrate in the threaded portion of the bolt, causing cracks. If use continues in this condition, the bolt may break and the pulse rotor that detects crankshaft rotation may detach, preventing proper ignition and fuel injection and causing the engine to stall. In the worst case, fragments of the bolt may become jammed, causing the engine to lock up. Published 2024-10-31.
What to do now
(Recall notification number) 5571. ■ Corrective measures: On all vehicles, replace the drive gear retaining bolt with an improved part. Because preparing the parts will take time, information about the defect will be provided, and further contact will be made as soon as the parts are ready.
