What is this? This is about some Montesa motorbikes made in Spain. The left side engine cover may have a wrong hole.

What's happening? The wrong hole can stop oil from reaching the engine. This may cause the engine to break and stop working.

Does this affect me? If you own one of these bikes in Portugal, Germany, or Sweden, you may be at risk.

What should I do? Stop riding the bike and ask your dealer or a mechanic to check it. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you feel unsure.
