Clik here to view.Suzuki Motor of America is recalling 6,214 model year 2013-2014 SFV650 and AN650A, and 2012-2014 DL650A motorcycles.
Because of contamination from component production and storage combined with manufacturing variations the motorcycle engines may suffer excessive tappet and camshaft wear.
The excessive wear may result in an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the tappet clearance, replacing the tappets and camshafts, as necessary. All motorcycles that have less than 2500 miles will have their tappets and camshafts replaced since wear may not be evident. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin February 1, 2016.
Owners may contact Suzuki customer service at 1-714-996-7040. Suzuki's number for this recall is 2A50, 2A51, and 2A52.
