2006 Chg CF250T V5 recalls

Recall 11V-544: Service Brakes, Hydraulic

Reported Nov 10, 2011 · 6,405 vehicles affected · CFMOTO POWERSPORTS, INC.

Problem: Cfmoto is recalling certain model year 2005 through 2009 cf250t v3, and cf205t v5 automatic motorcycles manufactured from january 1, 2005, through december 31, 2009. These models were built with a left hand rear wheel brake instead of the required right foot operated rear wheel brake. Therefore, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard number 123, "motorcycle controls and displays."

Risk: The absence of standardized motorcycle controls may hinder the operators ability to effectively brake, increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: Cfmoto will notify owners, and dealers will install a right foot control rear wheel brake kit, free of charge. The safety recall began on january 10, 2012. Owners may contact cfmoto at 1-888-823-6686.

Steering · at 170,000 miles · reported Feb 9, 2016
While driving bumps in the road cause severe shimmy. I have had numerous times with a trailer on back that it caused the trailer to whip and cause an accident. Also very dangerous without the trailer as well. I maintain proper tire inflation and this has very little effect. I hope ford will fix it before too many people get killed. This has been a problem ever since I bought it used in february of 2010.
