An official CAA Japan notice concerns Motorcycles (Yamaha YZF-R25A and others) - Repair. Braking system defects. ■ Defective components: ① Braking system (front brake hose). ② Braking system (front brake hose holder). ■ Conditions and causes of the structure, equipment or performance deemed noncompliant with standards: ① Due to inappropriate routing instructions for the horn wiring, the wiring on some vehicles contacts the front brake hose when the handlebars are turned left. This wears away the brake hose's protective material. Continued use in this condition may damage the hose and, in the worst case, cause brake fluid leakage and reduced braking force. ② Due to improper bending of the holder securing the front brake hose, some holders are not installed correctly. Consequently, riding vibrations or similar factors may cause the holder to come off. Continued use in this condition may allow the brake hose to contact the front fork and become damaged, and in the worst case, cause brake fluid leakage and reduced braking force. Published 2020-02-04.
