Kawasaki will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorcycle to a dealership to inspect the crankshaft bolts and bearing.

Par conséquent, une bague de vilebrequin pourrait s'endommager. Si cela se produisait, le moteur pourrait caler pendant la conduite.\n\nRisques pour la sécurité :\nUne perte soudaine de puissance du moteur pourrait accroître le risque d'accident.\n\nMesures correctives :\nAfin de réduire les risques pour la sécurité, Kawasaki recommande de ne pas utiliser la motocyclette jusqu'à ce que les réparations dans le cadre du rappel aient été effectuées. Kawasaki doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'apporter leur motocyclette chez un concessionnaire pour faire inspecter les boulons et le palier du vilebrequin. Le concessionnaire resserrera les boulons du vilebrequin correctement et réparera ou remplacera les pièces et/ou le moteur, au besoin."},"vehicles":[{"year":2024,"make":"KAWASAKI","model":"NINJA ZX-6R","vehicle_id":"2024_kawasaki_ninja-zx-6r","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2025,"make":"KAWASAKI","model":"NINJA ZX-6R","vehicle_id":"2025_kawasaki_ninja-zx-6r","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2025335"}
