The 2009 Suzuki GSX-R600 has two recalls, the more serious being an electrical defect that can cause the engine to stall while riding, raising the risk of a crash.
The second recall involves the front brake system. Over time, corrosion can develop inside the front brake master cylinder, and when combined with older brake fluid, the corroding piston generates gas that reduces hydraulic pressure to the front brake, meaning the brake lever produces less stopping force than expected.
