Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

MOTORCYCLE IS 2 WEEKS OLD / 1,900 MILES TOTAL: THE MOTORCYCLE HAS BEEN STALLING UNDER CERTAIN SPECIFIC CONDITIONS. ONCE THE ENGINE IS WARM, AND I ATTEMPT TO DOWNSHIFT MULTIPLE GEARS AT A TIME, THE BIKE MAY STALL WHILE THE CLUTCH IS PULLED IN. AS AN EXAMPLE, I MAY BE RIDING IN 6TH GEAR AND WILL SLOW USING MY BRAKES ONLY (NOT ENGINE BRAKING). I WILL CLOSE THE THROTTLE COMPLETELY, CLUTCH IN, AND THEN DOWNSHIFT TO 5TH, 4TH, 3RD SEQUENTIALLY WITHOUT RELEASING THE CLUTCH BETWEEN GEARS. THERE WILL BE A POP COMING FROM UNDER THE SEAT, AND THE BIKE WILL STALL. SUZUKI HAS BEEN CONTACTED AND DENIES THIS IS A WARRANTY PROBLEM OR A DANGER, STATING IT IS AN OWNER MAINTENANCE CONCERN ONLY. *TR
