Suzuki GSX1300RRQ Recall 23V088: Front brakes may not stop the bike as quickly

NHTSA campaign 23V088, reported February 15, 2023, 2,552 vehicles potentially affected.

What this recall means for you

A front brake master cylinder on these motorcycles may have its primary port in the wrong position. This can block the port and leave a gap between the front brake pads and discs.

Because of the gap, the distance needed to stop can increase, which raises the risk of a crash. This recall was superseded by a later recall, 24V-769, so check that recall as well. Owners can contact Suzuki customer service at 1-800-934-0934 for more information.

Authorized Suzuki dealers will replace the front brake master cylinder body at no cost to you. Check your motorcycle's VIN for any open recalls on the NHTSA website.
