Honda Motorcycles Crf1100a: Left Handlebar Switch Harness Failure

Recall Summary Honda is recalling approximately 4,141 CRF1100 motorcycles because the left handlebar switch harness can fail, preventing the horn from working and the headlight from switching between low and high beams. The recall affects multiple model years of the CRF1100A and CRF1100D variants sold in the United Kingdom. Honda will first apply a temporary repair using bands to secure the harness, followed by a permanent replacement of the handlebar switch assembly when parts become available in January 2026.
