I had a Dealer Recall for my rectifier a few months ago, although it's an 08 plate.  It could be worth checking with the Main Dealer to see if this was a problem that also existed on the 07!  That way it'll be done for you for free :grin:

The recall does not apply to other years. There was just the one bad batch that did not even apply to all the R/Rs of that year. The 2002 DL1000 has a different R/R from all the other years. 2003 and all later years can be swapped.
Pat- 2007 DL650A was ridden to all 48 contiguous states. 2012 DL650A outlasted me.
Nicknames I use to lessen typing, Vee = 2002-2012 (K2-L2) DL1000s. Veek=2014+ (L4+) DL1000s. Wee = 2004-2011 (K4-L1) DL650s. Glee = 2012+ (L2+) DL650s

Yes. 2006 and 2007 Vees use the same part and the recall does not apply to either year.
