As part of a global recall by Honda Motor Co., its Indian subsidiary HMSI (Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India) has recalled its CBR 150R and CBR 250R models, manufactured between July 2014 to June 2015 in the country. The company informs that the recall process will begin in mid-August 2015, and the starter relay switch will be checked and replaced in case there is a defect in it.
"It is suspected, sealant may have been applied incorrectly during assembly of the starter relay switch (which is a globally sourced part). This can increase resistance across main fuse, potentially interrupting the motorcycle's battery voltage to the electrical system.", the company said in a statement.

The defect could cause the engine to not start or stall while riding, and in extreme case the increased resistance at the main fuse could cause the starter relay to catch on fire. That said, no such incident has been reported yet anywhere in India. The replacement of the faulty part will be done free of cost across all HMSI dealerships.
