The right side footrest bracket on my 2023 Kawasaki ZX-14R is almost entirely split down the middle where the casting failed. I noticed the break today, 7/31/2025. When I put a small amount of weight on the foot peg the entire part flexes and I believe riding the motorcycle will cause it to snap off entirely. I have never crashed the motorcycle and it only has 3064 miles on the odometer. I fully believe this is a manufacturing defect with the casting that was not found in a quality control check.

Is 1 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2025 and 2025, roughly 1 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
