Summary:
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. |

|
Consequence:
As a result, front braking power may be reduced increasing the risk of a crash. |
||
|
Remedy:
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". |
