Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 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. *ak 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.
