What happened

Suzuki Motor USA is recalling certain 2014, 2015, and 2016 Suzuki DL 1000 motorcycles due to a wiring harness that may rub against the fuel tank. Vibration during riding can wear away the wiring insulation, causing a bare wire to short circuit against the fuel tank and potentially stall the engine, which increases crash risk.

Suzuki will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the motorcycles and reroute the wiring harnesses as needed at no charge. Any damaged harnesses will be repaired or replaced. Owners can contact Suzuki customer service at 1-714-572-1490 with questions about the recall, which is identified as recall number 2A53.
