On certain motorcycles, the screws holding the side stand switch may loosen and fall out due to engine heat and vibration. If this happens, the side stand switch will not function correctly, making it possible to ride the motorcycle with the side stand in the down position. If a side stand in the down position were to hit the ground during a turn, loss of control and a vehicle crash could occur. Correction: Screws holding the side stand switch will be replaced with a combination of bolts and nuts which will hold the switch securely.
