VOL. 53 ISSUE 31 AUGUST 9, 2016 P49 KAWASAKI Z125 PRO RECALL I t's only been on sale for a couple of months but already the Kawasaki Z125 Pro has come in for a recall. Apparently the rear shock is defective, with the recall notice saying, "Ka- wasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. (Kawasaki) is recalling certain model year 2017 Kawasaki Z125 Pro motorcycles manufactured February 4, 2016 through June 7, 2016. In the affected motorcy- cles, the shock absorbers may leak oil and lose their function. "Loss of function of the shock absorbers may affect the motor- cycle's handling, increasing the risk of a crash." For more information on the recall, click HERE.
