Kawasaki Z125 Pro & Pro KRT Recall Due to Stalling Issues

Kawasaki Z125 Pro Review

Kawasaki Z125 Pro Recall

Kawasaki has recalled 9,914 of its 2017-2018 Z125 PRO & PRO KRT Edition motorcycles due to possible engine stalling. Kawasaki says the Z125 (models BR125JHF and BR125JJF) may have a faulty fuel-injection setting in the Electronic Control Unit (ECU).

 

In the affected bikes, the drop of engine RPM may cause engine stalling. The improper setting of the ECU causes the combustion state to become unstable at small throttle applications when stopping or starting the vehicle. This could create the potential for a crash. No field claims have been received from the US market.
