The first time this happened i thought it was just the bike needed a tune up so i did a tune up. Same thing started occurring more often after. The problem lies in going low rpm and low speeds where the motorcycle spits and sputters and 3 out or 5 times it cuts off, leaving the driver with no control over the bike. This issue has not resulted in an accident yet; but is a danger non the less. I have since taken it to two different motorcycle shops and they have yet to determine what the issue is. I do not feel safe riding this motorcycle in this condition as it could cut off and loose control and crash, which could result in bodily injury. The second shop that still has the bike is getting a suzuki representative to come and look at it since the authorized suzuki shop has no clue in what is going on with the motorcycle. This seems to be the first issue of this kind where these experts have not been able to figure out why this motorcycle is doing this. I have been told that all the components that have been check are well within tolerances as set forth by the manufacture. The motorcycle is stock except for the exhaust, which was the way i bought it. I had a power commander installed but the" issue" was with it on or off. I wanted to post this to inform anyone else who has this make, model and year of bike to take heed and be safe if this situation starts affecting them as it has me. So far i have spent way too much money in trying to get this resolved, but i would rather ride a safe bike instead of a non-safe bike. Current mileage now is 50,000..

No incident of crash or road failure yet. Own 2007 suzuki blvd c50t motorcycle. Cracks developed on front wheel hub. Reported cracks to dealership within first 600 miles july of 2007. Factory stated they were casting imperfections. Cracks continued to grow. Reported to dealership in april of 2008 that the imperfections were expanding. Factory continued to claim them not ofa safety concern. July 2008 cracks are continuing to form. Dealership and factory are not trying to resolve issue. Had cracks looked at by co-workers who are aircraft structural technicians. They stated that the imperfections were cracks and not imperfections. Have read on internet forums that others are having the same problems with the same results from the factory. Please review. Feel that this may be an accident waiting to happen. Reporting this that maybe the factory may stand behind product that meets safety standards.
