Service bulletin GTB2502

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

GASGAS North America has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists with certain 2024 and 2025 GASGAS motorcycles equipped with BRAKTEC front brake calipers. Irregularities were found in the casting structure of one of our brake supplier's subcontractors. In the worst case, this can lead to the front brake caliper cracking in the area around the upper guide pin. See Figures 1 and 2. If the front brake caliper cracks at the upper guide pin it may reduce the braking systems effectiveness. For this reason, the manufacturer of the brake caliper casting must be checked on affected vehicles and replaced if necessary. The differentiation between the suppliers of the cast raw parts of affected vehicles can be seen directly on the brake caliper, see Figures 3 and 4.
