Honda CBR650R wiring damage kills lights and horn
high How serious is it? About this label
Losing your brake light, signals and horn while riding is a real crash and injury risk, and the notice does not tell riders to stop riding, so get it inspected promptly.
What's wrong, in plain English
On some 2024-2025 Honda CBR650R motorcycles, engine vibration can rub and damage the wiring for the turn signal switch. Damaged wiring can short out and blow a fuse. When that fuse goes, you lose your turn signals, your brake light, your speedometer and your horn all at once. Other drivers can no longer see when you are turning or slowing down. The dealer inspects that wiring and repairs it if needed.
