Defect description

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Super Cub C125, CB500X, CB650R, CBR300R, CBR500R, CBR650R, Rebel 300, Rebel 500, Monkey, 2020 CRF250L, GROM, 2021 CRF300L, and CB500F motorcycles.

Safety risk

A dim rear reflector may reduce the visibility of the motorcycle to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.
