The vehicle systems named most often in Honda CMX300 complaints (one complaint can name several).
In the owners’ own words, as filed with NHTSA. Unverified reports; NHTSA removes personal details before publishing.
The contact owns a 2023 Honda CMX300 Motorcycle. The contact stated while driving at approximately 25 MPH, the clutch lever collapsed, and the gear shifted inadvertently. The motorcycle was driven to the residence where the clutch lever was adjusted. The motorcycle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 12.
Repair instructions and other communications the manufacturer sent dealers about known issues. A TSB is not a recall, and the repair is usually free only while the car is under warranty; ask your dealer for the bulletin number.
The Wrench - If the right engine cover is leaking coolant on any of the models listed, this could be due to the water pipe causing a gap at the clutch cover side. Replacing the O-ring will not fix the leak. Instead, replace the water pipe.
