Shift Cam Segment Stopper (Sharp vs. Smooth Bend)

Kit # 90891-10251-00 (FZ09) / 90891-10254-00 (R6)
Mechanical Engineering Status:RECALL 15V-176 DEFECT LOCUS
CRITICAL RECALL DEFECT: The original factory stopper arm was stamped with an acute sharp internal notch at the bend. Under rapid gear shifts, cyclic fatigue caused catastrophic fracture at the notch. The countermeasure part features an engineered smooth radial bend that distributes stress evenly.
