Honda Motorcycles St1300: Possible Rear Brake Failure
Honda is recalling 1,412 ST1300 motorcycles distributed in the United Kingdom because a bolt on the rear swinging arm may rub against the rear brake reservoir hose, causing it to leak brake fluid. If the hose leaks, air can enter the brake system and the rear brakes could fail completely. Honda will replace the hose and reservoir on affected motorcycles.
