Defect Summary: Qingqi is recalling 738 my 2008 zap xebra motorcycles manufactured between january and december 2008. these motorcycles do not conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 122, "motorcycle brake systems." they do not have a separate brake fluid reservoir for the front and rear brakes.
Consequence Summary: Without a separate reservoir for each brake, having its own cover, seal, and cover retention device, fluid for one brake circuit may move to the other. if this happens, both reservoirs could loose fluid as a result of a fluid leak in one brake circuit and compromise the stopping ability of both brakes.
Corrective Action: Zap will notify owners and repair or replace the master cylinder free of charge. the safety recall began on january 29, 2010. owners may contact zap toll-free at 1-800-251-4555.
