On September 12, Kawasaki Motors Corporation USA submitted a voluntary safety recall report to the US National Highway Safety Administration regarding an ECU issue with some of its 2024 Ninja 7 and Z7 Hybrid motorcycles.
On affected bikes, the electronic shift control system may inappropriately find Neutral when riders are shifting from first into second gear. An unexpected Neutral could cause the bike to lose power when riders aren't expecting it, and thus increase the risk of a crash.
