Royal Enfield motorcycles have insufficient side and rear reflectors

Royal Enfield is recalling certain 2023 Himalayan, Classic 350, Meteor 350, Hunter 350, Super Meteor 650, Int 650 and Continental GT 650 motorcycles whose side and rear reflectors fail FMVSS 108.

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: Rubric level 3 covers risk-of-harm where injury has not yet been reported: inadequate reflectors make the motorcycle harder for other drivers to see, which is a direct collision pathway rather than a labelling error, and no incidents are recorded.

Plain-English summary

Royal Enfield North America Limited is recalling certain 2023 Himalayan, Classic 350, Meteor 350, Hunter 350, Super Meteor 650, Int 650 and Continental GT 650 motorcycles. About 4,206 units are potentially affected.

The side and rear reflectors are not sufficient. As such, these lights fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment".

NHTSA states that without the proper reflective equipment, it may be difficult for other road users to see the motorcycle from the rear or side, increasing the risk of a crash.

Dealers will replace the side and rear reflectors free of charge. Owner notification letters were expected to be mailed on October 30, 2024. Owners may contact Royal Enfield customer service at 1-866-600-1122, referencing recall number SC-43, or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
