NHTSA Recall No. 08V222000 Kawasaki ZX-14 Model years: 2006-07 Problem: On certain motorcycles, the rear suspension can collapse when a crossmember separates from the frame. Failure of the frame could result in the rear of the motorcycle collapsing, creating the possibility of a crash resulting in injury or death. This recall was the subject of a Preliminary Evaluation, PE08-021, conducted by the Office of Detects Investigation.

Remedy: Dealers will check the torque of the engine-mount adjusting collars, and inspect and possibly replace the frame. Owners not receiving this free remedy should contact Kawasaki at 866/802-9381.

NHTSA Recall No. 08V249000 Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa Model year: 2008 Number of units affected: 9109 Problem: Improper routing of the ignition-switch wiring harness can cause a bent portion of the harness to flex when the handlebar is moved side to side. Repeated side-to-side movement of the handlebar and flexing of the harness can eventually cause the ignition-switch lead to become cut or broken. This can cause intermittent or complete loss of electrical power, which can result in loss of lighting and/ or stalling of the engine, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will inspect the ignition-switch lead-wire routing and, if it is incorrectly routed, will replace the lower portion of the ignition switch (which contains the lead wires) and make sure that the harness is properly routed. Owners who do not receive this free remedy may contact American Suzuki at 800/255-2550.
