I have an 06 gsxr 1000. My bike is having the same problem as the 07 recall which is: "due to improper shape of the internal mechanism that moves the isc valve, the valve may remain in the open position instead of moving to the correct start-up position. This can result in no-load engine idle speeds as high as 5000 rpm the next time the engine is started. If the rider chooses to operate the motorcycle in this condition, the rider may have difficulty operating the motorcycle, which could result in a crash."i called suzuki to try and see if i could qualify for the 07 recall, but they basically told me they would do absolutely nothing for me. This bike is 5 years old with only 20k, it should not have these types of issues. It is really dangerous and its already been proven that this problem occurs in this line of bikes.

My son was riding his 2006 suzuki gsx r1000 on the interstate (75 mph). The frame broke and he went down. No other vehicles involved.
I received a recall letter from suzuki motors about my 06 gsxr 1000. The recall is for the frame cracking under stress. I took the frame to a local suzuki dealership and they told me the frame had a hairline crack in it. The service manager informed me the frame was on the recall list and that it most likely should be replaced. He sent photos of the frameto suzuki motors almost a month and a half ago. Three weeks into the process they had a service rep from the dealer come to my house and took pics of the other parts of my motorcycle. I was told that was all suzuki needed to complete the process. Then another week went past and i still got no response back from the dealer so i went to the dealership and the service manager gave me a check list suzuki had emailed him and told me they needed more detailed pics. I went down the check list and took all the pics they requested. Its now two weeks later and still no answer from suzuki motors. The service manager told me he should be getting and answer from suzuki by this week. I don't think suzuki has resolved this problem ina very timely manner and i am very frustrated.
