Defect Description
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2020-2022 and 2024-2025 CRF1100 Africa Twin motorcycles. The left handlebar switch harness may corrode due to oxidation, resulting in the loss of horn function or the ability to switch the headlight from low beam to high beam. As such, these motorcycles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

The inability to use the horn or switch the headlight from low beam to high beam can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the left handlebar switch assembly, free of charge. Interim letters notifying owners of the safety risk were mailed October 10, 2025. Additional letters will be sent once the remedy is available, anticipated January 30, 2026. Owners may contact Honda's customer service at 1-866-784-1870. Honda's number for this recall is KS8.
