Yessir! Tim was out with it and had to get aride back in a pickup

My point is if I already paid to have it doen and its a known problem shouldnt somebody be givng me some money back????????

Well that would explain why ive had to replace the battery 3 times now. When you wanna ride you do whatever to ride. HAHA...

A disconcerting thread.

My K8 has well over 50,000 miles, original battery, never ever have had any electrical issue whatsoever. Always fires right up, whether sub-freezing temps, or 120 degrees in Death Valley. Pretty sure I do not want/need a new rectifier... but I'll be keeping an eye on this thread....

It says all 08 09 GSX1300R and BK JS1GX71A82100026 thru JS1GX71A82102864 non abs

Man you read that wrong. You read the Bking stuff.

it says for 08-09 GSX1300R ALL

I got 11,000 kms on mine, never had any sort of battery issues.. However I ran into this problem on the GEN I. Its a pricey part none the less. If its affected, I want it to be replaced rather than deal with it later down the road. Would be cool if we could keep the original one in case of a backup needed. I have yet to hear about this in Canada. But they are all assembled in the same plant. So I'm sure its gonna surface in Canada. I have emailed my dealer and see what they have to say about it.

That's what I said, then included the bking vin's after the "and" as they are GSX1300's also. I called the local dealer here and they said i'm not on the list, funny, i'm on this one so I guess i'll have to wait for a recall letter.
