Suzuki Sfv-650: Engine May Stall
Recall Summary Suzuki is recalling approximately 16,146 motorcycles from multiple models (SFV-650, AN650, DL650, GSR750, GSX650, and GSX1250) sold in the United Kingdom because contamination between the tappet and cam can cause wear to the cam, leading to increased valve clearance. This condition may result in abnormal engine noises and, in some cases, engine stalling. Dealers will inspect tappet clearances and replace cams or adjust tappets as needed.
