SUZUKI'S GSX-R1000 and GSX-R1000R are being recalled over a potential fault which the firm says could cause the drive chain to break.
Shifting up from first, the gearbox could find neutral instead of second, resulting in high engine revs, according to Suzuki. If the rider then hooks second without using the clutch, excessive load could suddenly be placed on the chain by the high engine speed.
Suzuki says that the sudden force from the 202hp engine could cause the chain to stretch or even break.
