Reported risk: On certain motorcycles, the battery hold-down bolt may loosen under normal riding conditions. Should this occur, the battery may be able to move out of position allowing the terminals to contact the metal battery caddy cover and abrade through the positive terminal protective boot. As a result, the battery could short, causing sparks and a fire, which could cause a crash leading to injury or death to the rider. Correction: Dealers will replace the center battery caddy bolt with an updated bolt that has a locking patch on the threads.
