On certain motorcycles equipped with Integral ABS, an incorrect sealing ring may have been mounted to the piston of the rear brake master cylinder. As a result, the master cylinder may not build up adequate pressure in the system. Consequently, if only the rear brake were applied during riding, insufficient braking pressure would be available in order to decelerate the motorcycle. Correction: Dealers will replace the rear brake master cylinder.
