My opinion, as an engineer who has been involved in a few product liability cases is that they have reduced their maintenance costs but set themsleves up for legal expenses. As a second owner, I don't have the owners manual. Since there are no warning stickers on the bike...
They would have to convince a jury, none of whom have probably EVER changed the brake fluid in their ABS equipped cars, that it was normal maintanence procedure to change fluid annually. And that there was no way to prevent the corrosion problem, or provide a warning of ABS pump failure. GFL Bill
