do you guys have the same thing?

What problems are you having?

I've seen a lot of people bashing suzuki's on here,are they really that bad,or is it just the odd one?

Surely most makes have their fair share of problems..

Nothing wrong with them and they are very well represented in NZ.

I think it looks pretty cool. Depends on what they do with the engine I guess.

I've a friend with the 600 - I like it, and the yoshis help give it a bit of personality.

I'm guessing it will be something simple like a leaking rocker cover.

Could be tyre pressure - apparently you need to check this on Suzukis.

Broke it - moved on. Mind due it was an RG150 and there was nothing left of the internals.
But it did do 24,000 before doing that so the average was good. At a total cost to me (minus rego/petrol/oil) around the $3K mark @ 24,000k's thats bloody cheap.

Get a Honda.

More importantly Get a perm

Firstly, Suzuki's aren't designed to wear out. As Uncle B used to say. "How do you make a Suzuki crash? Just add petrol"

Actually, I've found rev limiters act like a poor mans quick shifter.
