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.

Transport Canada recall 2025459 · manufacturer campaign ML21

5 September 2025

Transport Canada lists: Crf1100 Africa Twin 2020–2025

What is wrong

On certain motorcycles, the wiring harness for the left handlebar switch may not have been manufactured properly. As a result, the horn and/or the high beam headlight may not work.

Why it matters

A headlight that doesn't work properly could cause reduced visibility. A horn that doesn't work could prevent a rider from warning others of an unsafe situation. Both issues could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Honda will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your motorcycle to a dealership to replace the left handlebar switch housing.

What the dealer will do

Honda will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealer to drain and clean the fuel tank. The fuel filter assembly will also be replaced.

Source: Transport Canada — Vehicle Recalls Database; NRCan — Fuel consumption ratings. Data current as of 6 August 2026. 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.
