What's wrong?
The brake pad on the 2024 Fly Wing Snake 250 Efi is the friction material that presses against the brake disc when the rider squeezes the brake control. Its job is to turn wheel speed into stopping force. In dry or wet conditions, the pad has to keep enough grip on the disc to slow the motorcycle predictably.
This recall concerns a defective brake pad that failed wet-road braking performance testing under FMVSS 122. During the wet-brake test, the front brake did not deliver the required deceleration compared with its baseline braking result. When water is on the braking surface, the pad does not create enough friction, so the motorcycle takes more effort or distance to slow than intended.
There is no warning sign before failure. A rider should not rely on a sound, light, or change in lever feel to know whether the brake pads are affected.

What's the safety risk?
Wet roads reduce braking margin for this recall. Affected brake pads can lengthen stopping distance in wet road conditions, increasing the risk of a crash. Slow down, leave extra following distance, and schedule the brake pad replacement promptly. Repair is free at any franchised Fly Wing dealer.
