## What is wrong

On certain motorcycles, the washer installed on the side stand spring bolt does not have sufficient hardness and may deform, which could cause the bolt to flex and eventually break during side stand operation.   A retracted side stand could drop while riding, possibly activating the side stand ignition cut\-off system.  If the ignition is cut, the engine will stall without warning, which could cause a crash.  Correction:  Dealers will install an improved washer and a new spring bolt and nut.
