## What is wrong

On certain motorcycles, the bolts fastening the drive\-chain guard to the swing arm may loosen and allow for the guard to contact the drive chain.  If this were to occur, the drive\-chain guard could break and create a potential road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the fasteners for the drive\-chain guard.
