⚠️ Riziko

The rear suspension on the motorcycles may collapse during riding due to the suspension arm breakage at its bearing mount area. The affected area is constantly under stress from the press-fitted bearing. When the affected area is exposed to corrosive agents such as snow melting agent, the affected area develop cracks to the point of breaking the bearing area.
