The problem
Brammo, Inc. is recalling certain model year 2013 Empulse electric motorcycles manufactured February 22, 2013, through March 29, 2013. Due to a high current cable being attached to the motor controller incorrectly, electrical shorting can occur.
The risk
An electrical short can cause a complete loss of power while riding the motorcycle or a fire, either of which can result in a vehicle crash or personal injury.
The fix
Brammo will notify owners, and technicians will inspect the high current cable at the motor controller and correct its installation, if needed. The recall began on June 26, 2013. Customers may contact Brammo at 1-541-482-9555.
