  3. GSXR1000, GSXR600, GSXR750 · reduction in braking efficiency

    4 Nov 2013 · RM/2013/028

    Moisture is absorbed by the brake fluid over time due to its hygroscopic nature. This moisture can cause corrosion to form in the piston and return spring within the brake master cylinder. As this corrosion forms it can cause the fluid to react and produce a small amount of gas. This gas may give a softer or spongy feel to the brake lever. In extreme cases this could reduce braking efficiency.

    Fix: Recall all affected machines and replace the brake master cylinder.
