Not a mechanical inspection

Moto Porch guides and Buyer's Kits help you ask better questions and spot common problems. They are not a substitute for an inspection by a qualified mechanic, and they cannot tell you whether a specific motorcycle is safe to ride. If you are unsure about a bike, pay for a professional pre-purchase inspection or walk away.

Where the data comes from

Recall information comes from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and may not include every recall or every model variant. Always confirm open recalls for a specific VIN with a dealer or at nhtsa.gov/recalls. Known issues are compiled from owner reports, service information and other sources cited on each page. Problems vary from bike to bike, and a listed issue does not mean a given motorcycle has it.
