20031003ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHILE DRIVING THE MOTORCYCLE LOST POWER WHICH CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THE MOTORCYCLE WAS TOTALED. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THE ENGINE WAS LEAKING EXCESSIVE OIL. DEALER HAS NOT BEEN NOTIFIED YET. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. *NLM
20020131CrashPOWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
I BOUGHT THE MOTORCYCLE WITH 1,400 MILES ON THE ODOMETOR, SECOND AND SIXTH GEAR WENT OUT WITHIN 600 MILES. I ARGUED WITH SUZUKI FOR MORE THAN 3 WEEKS, THEY NEVER CLAIMED RESPONSEBILITY BUT REPLACED IT ANYWAY! I FOUND OUT LATER THAT THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TRANSMISSION FAILURE FOR THIS MOTORCYCLE. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED AFTER ONLY 800 MILES. THE DAY THAT I PICKED UP THE MOTORCYCLE FROM THE DEALERSHIP AFTER THE SECOND TRANSMITION IT DEVELOPED A BAD OIL LEAK CAUSING ME TO HIGH SIDE AT 60MPH, AND SHATERING MY SHOULDER, MAJOR CONCUSION AND BADLY BRUISED RIBS. I KNOW OF AS MANY AS TWELVE OTHER SIMILAR CASES INVOLVING THIS PARTICULAR MOTORCYCLE!! I SUGEST A TOTAL RECALL, AND BELEIVE IT TO BE IN SUZUKI'S BEST INTEREST. NOTE SUZUKI USA NEVER TOOK RESPONCEABILITY AND WAS VERY RUDE DECLINING TO COMPENSATE ME IN ANY WAY!! *AK
