Cambridge Metal & Plastics has issued a recall for Moose Racing’s motorcycle training wheels and the replacement wheel kit. The recall potentially affects about 4,000 units.
The training wheels have a black, one-piece, full-length metal axle with a plate that attaches to the underside of the motorcycle frame beneath the engine and two inflatable rubber wheels. The Moose Racing logo appears on the left and right sides of the axle. The replacement wheel kit is a set of two tires mounted on the wheel assembly. Replacement wheel kits and training wheels that fit the following youth motorcycle models are being recalled: Honda XR/CRF 50, Kawasaki KDX/Suzuki JR 50, KTM 50, Suzuki DRZ 70, Yamaha PW50 and Yamaha TTR 50.
The parts were sold at dealerships nationwide as well as at mooseracing.com, parts-unlimited.com and other online retailers from July 2012 through June 2013 for about $130. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled training wheels, remove them from the motorcycle and contact Cambridge Metal & Plastics to have them repaired free of charge.
