Description:
Suzuki motor of america, inc. (suzuki) is recalling certain model year 2004-2013 gsx-r600 and gsx-r750, and model year 2005-2013 gsx-r1000 motorcycles. in combination with older brake fluid, corrosion of the brake piston inside of the front brake master cylinder generates gas that may result in a reduction of fluid pressure transmission to the front brake.
Consequencs:
As a result, front braking power may be reduced increasing the risk of a crash.
Notes:
Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front brake master cylinder, free of charge. the recall began on november 18, 2013. owners may contact suzuki at 1-800-572-1490. suzuki's campaign numbers for this recall are: 2a (31, 32, 33, 34, 35, and 36).

Manufacturer: American Suzuki Motor Corp.
Description:
Suzuki is recalling certain model year 2008 through 2010 motorcycles manufactured from july 2007 through september 2009, equipped with regulator/rectifier assemblies, suzuki part numbers 32800-41f11, 32800-15h10, 32800-05h11, 32800-41g10, 32800-15h00, 32800-18h00, 32800-05g10, 32800-10g10, 32800-05h20, or 32800-06g01. some regulator/rectifier assemblies were produced with insufficient adhesion between the power module (circuit board) and the rectifier case that contains a heat sink to dissipate heat. due to insufficient adhesion, heat generated on the power module circuit board can cause the circuit board to deform, and lift of the case.
Consequencs:
This condition causes excessive heat on the circuit board and uncontrolled electric current output, which can result in insufficient charging current being provided to the motorcycle battery. this can cause discharge of the battery and can lead to engine stalling and/or a no-start condition. engine stalling while riding can increase the risk of a crash.
Notes:
Suzuki will notify owners and suzuki distributors will replace the regulator/rectifier with an improved part free of charge. the safety recall began on march 2, 2011. owners may contact suzuki at 1-714-572-1490.
