Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 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
