Recalls

Good news: Recall repairs are almost always free. Book with any manufacturer dealer and quote the recall number. Transport Canada’s own wording is that a manufacturer “will almost always make these repairs free of charge”, so being asked to pay for recall work is unusual and worth questioning. Since 2018 the Minister of Transport can order a company to pay for repairs so owners do not bear the cost.

What is wrong

On certain competition motorcycles, the master link on the drive chain could break. If this happens, the chain would detach and could cause the engine to stall. Note: This recall only affects CRF450RW models.

Why it matters

A drive chain that breaks could create a risk of injury or a crash.

What the dealer will do

Honda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a Honda Powersport dealer to replace the drive chain.

Running cost uses Ontario average prices (155 ¢/L, 14.5 ¢/kWh), which are hand-maintained estimates. These are average residential rates. A car’s charging is added on top of what your home already uses, so on a tiered, time-of-use or subsidised tariff it is billed at your top rate rather than this average — which makes the real cost higher, especially in the territories.
