DEFECT #1 - POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION


Posted on: 2014-10-07
Description
Suzuki motor of america, inc.  (suzuki) is recalling certain model year 2011-2014 gsx-r750 and 2009-2014 gsx-r1000 motorcycles.  If a gear is missed while upshifting, the strain applied to the drive chain after the next shift may cause the rear axle to move, damaging the left-side drive chain adjuster.  

Consequence
If the drive chain adjuster gets damaged, the drive chain may come off, removing power to the rear wheel, and increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left-side chain adjuster with an improved part.  The recall began on october 17, 2014.  Owners may contact suzuki customer service at 1-714-572-1490.  Suzuki's numbers for this recall are 2a40, 2a41, 2a42 and 2a43.
