"2016 HONDA CBR 300 RECALL" I BOUGHT A 2016 HONDA CBR 300 ABS MOTORCYCLE BRAND NEW WITH 2 MILES ON THE MOTORCYCLE ON AUGUST 8, 2017. ON AUGUST 12, 2017 I DECIDED TO RIDE MY MOTORCYCLE TO ANTIOCH AND UPON RETURNING HOME FROM ANTIOCH, THE MOTORCYCLE CUT OFF, WHILE I WAS IN A TURN. THE BIKE DIED AND CAUSED ME TO SKID ON MY LEFT SIDE, SLAMMING INTO THE GRAVEL, AND SLIDING 15 YARDS ON MY SHOULDER AS WELL AS HEAD. I WAS WEARING PROTECTIVE HEAD WEAR, SO I HAD NO HEAD TRAUMA, HOWEVER IN ATTEMPT TO BRACE MY FALL I PUT DOWN MY LEFT HAND. LEFT HAND WAS ROAD RASH. I CONTACTED CONTRA COSTA POWERSPORTS AND THEY CAME TO ANTIOCH TO PICK UP THE BIKE, SO I DO NOT HAVE PHOTOS OF MY BIKE. CONTRA COSTA POWERSPORTS TOLD ME THEY WERE GOING TO EXAMINE WHAT HAPPENED, AS WELL AS REPLACE EVERYTHING THAT WAS DAMAGED. WITH CONCERN, I TYPED IN RECALLS ON 2016 HONDA CBR 300 IN GOOGLE SEARCH, AND DISCOVERED A RECALL FOR MY BIKE DATING BACK TO JULY 8, 2016....
