2006 Suzuki GSX-R750 recalls

Recall 13V-449: Service Brakes

Reported Oct 18, 2013 · 208,966 vehicles affected · Suzuki Motor of America, Inc.

Problem: 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.

Risk: As a result, front braking power may be reduced increasing the risk of a crash.

Fix: 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).

Gentlemen I own a 2006 suzuki gsxr 750 sport bike and to put it lightly, I AM scared to ride it. The problem is that the bike while riding at an average speed at around 4000-6000 RPM's, with just a minute change in acceleration the bike accelerates and decelerates uncontrollably. This is a great problem which can lead to loss of control and potentially lead to an accident. I have taken the motorcycle to the dealers numerous times with no fix. The problem is more evident at an engine operating temperature of about 195-210f. I ask that you investigate and attempt to find a solution from which we…

At low RPM's or opening throttle from stop, the throttle abruptly engages and jerks me forward in an uncontrolled manner. This could be serious if I were to loose control or take my attention away from the road or vehicles in front of me.

Fuel System, Gasoline · at 27,800 miles · reported Jul 7, 2009

My gas tank on a 2006 gsxr 750 rusted out in under 3 years. Gas was pouring out of the bottom of the tank where 3 holes were subsequently discovered. Apparently, rusted out gas tank is not covered under warranty on a 3 year old bike. If the gas tank can't handle the regular water content of the gas that is poured into it, it is an unsafe tank.
