Suzuki is providing a new reverse gear shaft and bearing to King Quad owners under a new warranty program. They have not used the word recall, but they are providing a new shaft with oiling holes and a needle bearing for the reverse gear which stays the same. They are saying that late model 2005's and later units will have the new shaft and bearing already installed.
You may not request a new shaft/bearing assembly and get it covered under warranty, you can however buy the parts and replace them yourself. The parts are only available under warranty if you have experienced a failure.
They also say that anyone who has a 2005 King Quad will have 5 years of warranty for the reverse idler gear problem.

Is there any way to get a production date that would show what they consider "later" 2005's?.....just curious...where did you get the info?
Will the quads that already have the updated shaft and bearing also have the retarded ECM, or will they have the original programming with full power.
Is this Canada, US or both?

This is not acceptable! So Suzuki is expecting me to pay for parts and do labor myself to fix a defective design which they are admitting to buy selling and replacing broke reverses with. This is a joke. A company can make me pay for parts and labor to fix their defective design. This is almost funny.

If you read the entire paragraph where he says
