krom Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) only sort of though, not bursting into fire, but blowing engines... The Washington, D.C.-based U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced on Wednesday that about 32,000 side-by-sides from the 2019-21 model year are being recalled due to crash and injury hazards. American Honda is recalling 2019-2021 Honda Talon 1000 S2 and S4 side-by-sides. The vehicle’s intake funnel band screw can loosen and enter the engine through the intake funnel and cause sudden engine failure. If this occurs, it could result in a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash or injury. https://powersportsbusiness.com/top-stories/2022/03/09/about-32000-side-by-sides-recalled/ Edited March 10, 2022 by krom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mag6240 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 HA - A new club member recently bought a 2019 900 Ace powered Ski-Doo, the previous owner had an external GPS mounted on it. Within 100 miles, the damn thing blew up! Turns out, when the previous owner took his external GPS off the sled, he just let the bolts drop down into the engine compartment - and yup, they went right into the intake! BOOM!! 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
