1 recall across 1 model year
The Suzuki GS850 has 1 recall affecting the 1979 model year, where final drive bolts at the rear wheel may not be properly tightened, allowing them to break and jam between the drive gear case and the rear wheel, which can lock the rear wheel while riding.
When a bolt breaks and wedges into that gap, the rear wheel can seize abruptly, potentially causing loss of control. This recall applies to vehicles within a specific frame number range (100066 through 110187), so not every 1979 GS850 is necessarily affected.
