If you have a Ducati Hypermotard 950 from the first model year (2019) in your garage, then you might want to take a look at your kickstand, as it might not have been welded properly.
If you have a 2022 Husqvarna FE 501s or 2022 Husqvarna FE 350s in your garage, then you might want to take a look at your brake caliper, as the Swedish brand has issued a recall with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
The recall concerns 342 units of the two models, and focuses on the brake pad retaining clips on the front brake caliper, which may have been mounted incorrectly, and could result in loose front brake pads.
If you have a Polaris Slingshot (circa 2020-2021) in your garage, you might want to check your rear wheel before you take it for its next drive.

Confirming the news we posted two weeks ago, Aprilia’s recall with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has finally been published on the government’s website.

Certain owners of the Aprilia RS 660 and the Aprilia Tuono 660 should expect a notification soon that their motorcycles are up for recall, which will see the Italian brand swapping out their engines for new ones.
In total, less than 100 motorcycles will be affected by the recall when it comes out, with Aprilia targeting certain VIN ranges for the two models of motorcycle with the 660cc parallel-twin engine.
If you bought a Ducati Scrambler Nightshift this year, then your bike is up for a recall with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for front and rear turn signals that don’t flash brightly enough.
