Johnstein might be able to answer that one. He's going through it now as well.
i didnt ask the tear down fee but i dropped it at ten am at 330 they called and said no warranty come on down and take a look ! i was advised that i should ve stayed and watched the tear down , who knows whos parts thier showing you ? and then what are you goin to do take the bike out in boxes they charge to put it back together ? good luck i hope you have a better experience than i did , they told me
1 tire showing too much wear for 5000 miles !
2 three inch strip down middle of tire shows hard launches
3 sprocket shows unusual signs of wear, looks like you have been tryin to wheelie alot
check all these things before you bring it in , check for tire rubber under the undertail,
and make copies of all service records and hand them to the service manager when you drop the bike off , oh yeah never tell them you have missed a shift ! doing this once they say will destroy the trans
good luck ! call suzuki and get a file #
suzuki 1-714572-1490
i spoke with cheryl , harley , and thier supervisor brad took them three weeks to tell me no warranty now i am waiting on a goodwill payment cause the bike was so new , but i still have no awnser on that ? and if i tell the dealer to start the work it ends suzukis responsibilitys , so basicaly they are f###in me and the horse i rode in on !
heres the part that hurts !
1 i dont wheelie , im 32 years old and have three boys 12 ,9 , and 3 all of whom expect to see me at home again , the bike has come up on me 4 times and i figured out that it was always coming out of a turn and that i had very little fuel in the tank ! now i keep the tank full and wait till i complete the turn to get back into the throttle !
2 launchin the hayabusa hard ? i wish i could i dont want the front coming up on me as stated above , so yes i have left a traffic light fast or accelerated hard to enter the highway but far from what i have heard of as far as launching" leave the line at four grand " everytime i read that i picture the 550 pound busa slamming me in the chest cause it looped ! " and if i have a hard time imagining it there are videos of it happening to people posted here monthly"
i dont beat on my bike , i commute back n forth to work , dome some two up semi long trips
if i should ever get hurt on this bike i would be screwed !
loss of job
morgage
credit cards
kids
wife
dog
ect...
my older brother is permantly disabled for life cause somebody made a left in front of him so anytime i need a reminder of how much it would suck he is there! he is 41 now happened when he was 22! i have too much too loose for a eighty mph wheelie ! i dont care what other people do ,it is fun to see or watch ,but strictly a spectator sport for me ! it just sucks that suzuki is tellin me this is what i did ! cause i know i didnt ! good luck
I LOVE MY BIKE !
