Finally, Suzuki admit the fault.
Can it be translate please?
 

On February 15, Suzuki notified the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism of a recall (recovery and free repair) due to a problem with the front brake of the large sports tourer " Hayabusa ". The target is 1557 units manufactured from February 25, 2021 to December 21, 2021.

The 20 replacement repair parts that were shipped from May 26, 2021 to June 3, 2022 and whose assembled vehicle cannot be identified are also eligible.

In the subject vehicle, the setting of the oil passage for regulating the hydraulic pressure of the brake is inappropriate in the front brake master cylinder body, so the oil passage may remain blocked. Therefore, under certain conditions, the brake lever has more play, and in the worst case, the braking distance may increase.

As a remedy, we will replace the front brake master cylinder body on all vehicles with the countermeasure product, and replace the front brake master cylinder related parts with new ones.

There were 29 malfunctions and no accidents. A recall was filed based on information from the market.

Mine was replaced, quite a while ago. It's in the brake fade threads. I live in Arizona.
I remember that, but it wasn't a recall.
Another U.S member posted having their mc replaced too, only for that one to do the same thing.
Apparently Suzuki has narrowed down it's bad batches of mc's to a vin# range of bikes they went on in Japan now, which is good, but they need to get it done in the U.S now too.
Sh*t quality with little to nothing done about it, is rampant everywhere since covid.
