    Transport Canada - Road Safety Recalls
    On certain motorcycles, the side stand connector and/or frame could break. If this occurs while the motorcycle is in motion, it could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. If the side stand breaks while the motorcycle is stationary, it could fall over, increasing the risk of injury to bystanders. Correction: Dealers will inspect the side stand connector and frame for any damage. If no damage is found, the motorcycle will be equipped with a reinforcing plate and a new side stand connector. If damage is found, a redesigned frame including the reinforced side stand connector will be installed.

    Soon to be coming to the US I suspect!

    Why is Canada always ahead of the US?

    My guess this is due to the size of the Canadain market. The smaller market allows them to work the kinks out of the recall system before going to the larger market in the Americas.
