I have a 2003 suzuki gsf1200s bandit. And my lighting has degraded signifigantly and has a black residue located at the lens opstucting the light with this film. This motorcycle has condenser style lights and the output is severly reduced making it hard to see at night.
A small separation of the top weld on the right side of the gas tank on my 2003 suzuki vl1500lc motorcycle. I noticed it when i was changing the exhaust system on my bike, the fix is to use jb weld to close the crack. Suzuki international will not even talk to me about the problem. They stated nhtsa would have to force them to even acknowledge that there was a problem with the gas tank.
To whom it may vconcern.last week i received a safety recall from suzuki motor. Reference a 2003 suzuki, vz800k3 motorcycle, i purchased on 07/05/04 from quinsey powersport of el cajo, california.when i contacted the dealer to have the work performed on said motorcycle i was told by the manager of service to ride the bike in and 3 days it will be ready. How could a ride in a bike that the manufacturer states " do not ride your california model".i have called people at the dealer and at the manufacturer without getting a stray answer yet. What should i do next? did i mention, that on the first day i took the bike home. While in my way to workdoing 60 the speedometer broke. Do i have a lemon? thank you for your time.mario
The suzuki vl1500lc intruder (lc for short) has a known problem with its fuel tank cracking right behind the front right mounting bolt. This is known to the lc community, and we assume that it is known by suzuki. The latter, however, has so far not done anything to remedy the situation. Yes, they will replace the tank, but the new tank cracks in the same place, so that is not a 'good' fix.the tank on my bike has developed the same crack, after less than 14,000 miles. The gas is routed to drip in an area very near the exhaust pipes. (on a bike with stock exhaust, it may well drip onto the exhaust expansion chamber.)because the repair - ie replacement of tank - is not a satisfactory repair most of us see no reason to leave the bike in the shop for a week or more to facilitate replacement of said tank. In stead, other remedies are sought. Some success is reported using jbweld.
I have a 2003 suzuki intruder lc1500.it is 2 months out of warranty and has 5,100 miles on the odometer.recently i started smelling gas and, aware that others have had cracks in their fuel tanks through the lc forum, checked the suspect area of the tank.there was residue, i cleaned the tank and rechecked it yesterday.there was new residue and the crack is visible.
There is a crack in the weld along the right side of the gas tank on my 2003 suzuki vl1500lc motorcycle. I noticed it after other owners and i have started communicating among each other about this problem. A common fix seems to be to use jb weld to close the crack. Suzuki international will not even talk about the problem. They have rudely treated many who have contacted them regarding this serious problem. Many dealers have refused to acknowledge this and it is a widelyy know issue among current owners of the motorcycle.
Vehicle came equipped with both automatic and standard transmissions. While in the automatic transmission mode the transmission locked up, resulting in the rear tires locking up.when this occurredvehicle suddenly came to a complete stop. It couldhave resulted in an accident if vehicle was being driven at a faster speed. Correct model name birdman, 650, 2003,not in artemis.
The motorcycle had a defective clutch. "suzuki model# an650 year 2003".
Unable to get transmission into neutral after a long or hard run.*la
2003 suzuki vinson atvmanual 5-speed transmission.transmission will sometimes get stuck in first gear and no amount of pressure will allow you to shift to second gear.sometimes in higher gears gear transmission will get stuck between gears in a "false neutral" effectively disengaging the transmission and will produce grinding noises.after a few seconds the transmission will "slam" into selected gear.problems are more than occasional and dealer has provided no help.*la
This involves an atv quad, artic cat 500.the vehicle is registed and insured.the accident occurred on a state maintained road north of florence and south of box canyon in southern arizona.at about 30 miles an hour, brakes were applied when turning left and downhill.the vehicle would not control in the turn, and rolled over the driver, me.it wasn't unitl recently that i found the vehilce only had three disc brakes calipers .two in front and one on the right rear.having one brake in the rear acts as a turning brake to the right causing the 650 pound vehicle to tip right in the front when turning and is exagerated going downhill.the vehicle received several hundred dollars in damage and appears to have a bent frame.i received severe injuries to both legs and permanent injury to my right leg.i have given this great thought as i am a mechanic for a local dealership that specializes in front and rear axles and basic brake systems.it is my opinion that the lack of the fourth brake has caused this accident and is likely to cause more serious physical injury to other drivers.please review my complaint.if there is anything further that you require of me do not hesitate to ask.
The kickstand on my volusia almost gave out.luckily i noticed it before it fell over.*nlm
Re:suzuki volusia:the kickstand will fold up without warning.i parked my bike on a very slight incline and it fell over.i think the stand doesn't open far enough to be safe.
Vehicle shook uncontrollably shaking when driving at 40 mph or less. When purchasing the vehicle consumer had the tires changed at the dealership, that was the first thingsuggested was waswrong with vehicle.since the tires hadbeen changedvehicle still has the same problem.
Re: 2003 suzuki scooter an 650 burgman.electronic (lcd) displays of speed and other data are impossible to read in bright light when traveling.this makes it impossible to accurately control speed on the vehicle.this unit should be replace by analog guages which can be read in all light conditions.
When driving, the vehicle's chain jumped the sprocket which caused the wheels to lockup. Dealer notified. Please provide additional information. *ph
Front wheel bearings failed at about 6500 miles. Motorcycle started lurching and i pulled over to the side and one of the front wheel bearings was almost totally destroyed. There wasn't a screeching sound or anthing to warn me that the bearings were failing prior to this. This is a known problem to owners of the suzuki af650 but suzuki has not addressed it. Suzuki did replace the bearing. Initially they told me to pay for it because it was a bearing that's considered a "wear item." later the dealer reimbursed me for the cost of the bearing and labor.
