Kawasaki Recalls Z125 PRO Models For Faulty ECU Programming

Khodrocar - Remember back in 2016 when Kawasaki recalled the Z125 PRO for an issue with the rear shocks? Well, it looks like the tiny Z125 is being recalled again, this time for problems with the ECU programming.

According to Motorcyclist.com, Kawasaki has begun the arduous and costly process of a product recall for 2017-2018 Z125 PRO PRO KRT Edition motorcycles (models BR125JHF and BR125JJF). The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (or NHTSA) has just reported that the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) on certain Z125 PRO bikes may possess an "improper setting for the fuel injection” (ignition timing) which can result in the engine stalling. 

Kawasaki says the issue occurs when coming to a complete stop or accelerating from a standstill. The potential number of machines affected is 9,914, that means literally every unit of the pint-sized scoot that Kawasaki has churned out thus far.
