June Recalls
Filed Under (Recalls) by John Davis

If your motorcycle has been recalled and you are not sure what to do, check out What To Do If Your Motorcycle Is Recalled.

Kawasaki is recalling certain MY 2006-2007 ZX14 motorcycles. The rear suspension can collapse when a crossmember separates from the frame. Failure of the frame could result in the rear of the motorcycle collapsing creating the possibility of a crash resulting in injury or death. Dealers will check the torque of the engine mount adjusting collars and inspect and possibly replace the frame if necessary. The recall is expected to begin during June 2008. Owners may contact Kawasaki at 1-866-802-9381. This recall was the subject of a Preliminary Evaluation, PE08-021, conducted by the Office of Defects Investigation. 08V-222

Kawasaki is recalling 1,393 MY 2009 KLX250T9F and KLX250T9FL motorcycles. The throttle grip and the handlebar grip may come loose and separate from the handlebar and throttle tube. This creates the potential for a crash resulting in injury or death. Dealers will replace the grips as required. The recall is expected to begin during June 2008. Owners may contact Kawasaki at 1-866-802-9381. 08V-228
