? Huh.... uh.. the recall is 100% real.. are you complaining that it's not updated on KMC's website, or that you havent gotten a letter in the mail yet?
As a concerned 10R owner, you should contact your dealer and have them check you VIN to confirm if you are in need of a new front wheel.

First of all, describe how you checked for a recall.
What's your VIN?
When did you buy your bike?
Here's a clue: take the bike's VIN and plug it into the 'check warranty status' box under 'vehicle information'...
Until then, take a chill, dude.

I call BS on your BS and triple your BS...and you might want to be a good student and heed the advice of the swami and the swft or you'll be facing a loss that you could've prevented with that first Zx-10R of your's in town...pun intended, of course

Got wheel changed, with the old wheel the 10R had lots of vibration in the handlebars at 50 mph (critical speed due to frequency wheel/bike amplifying each other) with the new wheel it is gone. Could be down to bad balancing of the old wheel at the factory. The tyre is still the same (also possible cause). But may be there was something wrong with the wheel.

Burgerking, noticed a shake on my front wheel also from around 45mph, turns out the wheel was warped by 61 thou. Got a new wheel and then 10 days later the recall came out so I had another new wheel put on within the week of the recall. No problems so far.
