KAWASAKI issued a recall on the CONCOURS 14 and CONCOURS 14 ABS models

On certain motorcycles, small stones or other road debris can become trapped between the brake pedal and the rear brake master cylinder actuating rod. This can prevent full release of the rear brake. Continuous activation of the rear brake while the vehicle is being operated can result in overheating, damage, rear wheel lockup, or failure of the rear brake, creating the risk of a crash resulting in injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install a cover on the brake pedal.
