Recalls on my bike

Postby Megsnitro » Thu Dec 17, 2009 5:08 pm

Hi all,

I received a letter from Kawasaki informing me there is a recall on my model bike and I rang my local dealer who didn't know anything about it. They did look it up and said they just had to order in a part and fix it but as my bike is the first brand new thing I've ever bought (prefer old cars) I don't know anything about recalls. Is there anything I should know or do in regards to warranty and so on? Not that I don't trust the dealer...... I just like to be informed :)

Just take it back to the dealer and all should be good, ask them to give you something on paper that it was fixed. :D

What is the recall for? and what year model 250

Thanks for that - just what I wanted to hear :D
It's a 2010 model and the recall states "on affected units engine oil may leak and deposit on the rear tyre".The dealer hadn't seen any with problems but they ordered in the replacement part and I will take it back on Saturday.

Hi there. I received the same letter and called Kelen Kawasaki and they said that 2 bikes came up with this problem. Also they said it is just a safety check. The problem is they are closing for holidays and will come back next year and I wanna do this check before take the bike to OP on 11/01.

I wouldn't trust Image Motorcycles at Gosford with your bike for anything........ wait for Kelen's they are good people who will look after you.....
