Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India Issues Recall for GL1800 Gold Wing and CBR1000RR Motorcycles
Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India has announced a recall for its GL1800 Gold Wing and CBR1000RR motorcycles. The purpose of the recall is to test the fuel tanks of these bikes and replace them if necessary. The brand will bear the cost of the replacement, ensuring that customers do not have to pay anything for this service. The reason behind the recall is a potential issue with the bike pump impellors, which may be molded incorrectly. This can lead to fuel tank failure and result in the engine not starting or stopping without warning while riding.
Affected Models
The recalled models include the Honda GL1800 Gold Wing manufactured between December 2017 and December 2023, as well as the CBR1000RR bikes manufactured between September 2017 and April 2020. As a precautionary measure, the fuel tanks of these models will be tested and replaced at Bigwing Topline dealerships across India.
Honda’s Latest Launch
Honda’s most recent launch is the NX500, an updated model of the CB500X that has been discontinued in the Indian market. The motorcycle is exclusively sold through Honda’s Bigwing dealerships, and deliveries have already begun.
Engine Powertrain and Features
The Honda NX500 is equipped with a 471cc, liquid-cooled, 4-stroke DOHC engine with a twin-cylinder layout. This engine generates 46.5bhp power at 8,600rpm and 43Nm peak torque at 6,500rpm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The motorcycle features all-LED lighting, an emergency stop signal, and a 5-inch TFT full-color screen with Honda RoadSync, which is compatible with both iOS and Android. Additionally, it offers a traction control system called Honda Selectable Torque Control.
