Recall - Front Brake Reservoir Mounting Screw

There's an outstanding recall on the Front Brake Reservoir mounting screw annouced last August. For those who has not taken their bike in for the service, double check the brake line from Reservoir to Master Cylinder, I saw a hole caused by the abrasion from the screw pressed against the rubber hose.

Rubber came off due to washing the bike often....

I decided to remove the bolt and had it shaved off...better!
