- Reported: 2007\-01\-09
- Component: Wheels
- Notification type: Recalls Audit
- Units potentially affected: 3

## What is wrong

On certain motorcycles equipped with cross\-spoke wheels and the optional tire\-pressure monitoring system \(TPM\), the hole though which the tire inflation valve \(and in this case, the integral TPM sensor\) is inserted was not manufactured according to specifications.  Because of this, the valve may not seat properly in the hole, and a leak may develop.  In some cases, it is possible that sudden deflation of the tire could occur.  If this happened, motorcycle handling and control would be compromised, increasing the risk of a crash.  Correction: Dealers will temporarily deactivate the TPM system, remove the corresponding valves and integral TPM sensors, and then replace them with standard valves.  When a permanent repair is available, owners will be notified to bring their vehicle in for reactivation of the TPM system and replacement of the integral TPM sensors and valves.
