American Honda Motor Recalls Off-Road Motorcycles for Grip Detachment

American Honda Motor is recalling about 40,700 model year 2023-2024 off-road motorcycles (CRF50F, CRF110F, CRF125F) because the handlebar grip can detach, posing a crash and injury hazard. One crash resulting in a knee injury has been reported.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The source explicitly states an injury has been reported (one crash resulting in a knee injury), making this a risk-of-harm product where injury has been reported. This meets the High (score 3) criterion under the rubric.
