Kawasaki Recalls — Canada & USA – Major League Recalls

Kawasaki has 119 models with recall activity in our database, spanning 1975 through 2026. Across those models, 199 recall campaigns are recorded, and the concentration at the upper end of the severity rating system is notable in the raw numbers: 146 recalls, or 73%, fall into the Critical tier, with another 27, or 14%, rated High. Together, Critical and High recalls account for 87% of all campaigns in the database, reflecting issues that carry the potential for loss of vehicle control, fire, or serious bodily injury. Medium recalls make up 12% of the total, while Low and Informational ratings each account for just 1%.

Among individual models, the NINJA H2 SX leads the lineup with 9 recalls, followed by the NINJA ZX-10R at 8 and the CONCOURS 14 at 6. Those three sport and sport-touring models together represent a meaningful portion of activity across what is otherwise a broad catalog of 119 distinct motorcycles and other powersport vehicles stretching back five decades. The recall record covers everything from early 1970s-era models through the current model year, reflecting how consistently the lineup has been tracked as recall reporting requirements and safety standards have evolved over that span.
