CSC Recalls 2015-2016 Cyclone Motorcycles for Missing Brake Fluid Label

CSC Motorcycles is recalling 2015-2016 Cyclone motorcycles because they may lack a required label reminding users to use DOT 4 brake fluid.

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 recall involves a risk-of-harm product where the missing label could lead to brake system damage and increased crash risk, but no injuries or illnesses have been reported.

Plain-English summary

CSC Motorcycles, LLC is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Cyclone motorcycles manufactured between April 4, 2015, and November 10, 2016. The affected vehicles may not be equipped with a supplemental label that reminds the user to clean the brake reservoir before adding brake fluid and to use DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container. As a result, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 122, "Motorcycle Brake Systems."

If the supplemental brake fluid label is missing, the operator may use an incorrect brake fluid which could damage the brake system and increase the risk of a crash.

CSC will notify owners and provide the missing label free of charge. The recall began in January 2017. Owners may contact CSC customer service at 1-800-884-4173 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
