“To whom it may concern, I have had problems with my Suzuki motorcycle with the transmission. The second gear does not work and it seems to not be there, and the clutch makes loud chattering sounds most likely due to the transmission. Please investigate the matter, and I believe Suzuki knows of this problem but will not issue a recall.”

NHTSA complaint #744871, filed 2001-05

“Transmission second gear skips loosing power.note this motorcycle is never been abused.I was getting into the highway when transmission starts skipping and almost got hit by a car due to loos of power.I know of other friend of mine with same model same year motorcycle with the same problem.if you need more information please send me and email.thanks four your interest.”

NHTSA complaint #755938, filed 2001-12

“Motorcycle kept slipping out of second gear, it did it first at 55 MPH but then did it all the time after that. Suzuki knows about the problem and refuses to issue a recall to fix the problem. If the problem with this persists it will end up costing me my entire price of my bike since my warranty ends in a few months. Suzuki tries to blame the problem on rider error and not faulty parts. We pay for the best in bike performance and we get cheap parts that break in 5500 miles.”
