On March 23, 2023, American Honda Motor Company issued a safety recall for certain 2022 Honda Navi motorcycles due to improper routing of the speedometer cable from the factory. This improper routing, Honda says, could cause the speedometer to break or detach, which would then render the speedometer inoperable. If this occurred, it could increase the risk of a crash or an injury.
Approximately 15,848 bikes may potentially be involved in this recall, which represents an estimated one percent of the population, according to Honda’s records. On affected bikes, the incorrect routing of the speedometer cable may cause a gap in the speedometer’s cover and an insufficient fit with the pinion gear. Thus, potential breakage might occur on the speedometer side, or else detachment on the brake panel side.
