WHEN UNDER ACCELERATION IN SECOND GEAR, AND THE ENGINE REVS APPROACH 9000 RPM, THE BIKE "SKIPS" AS IF THE CHAIN IS SKIPPING ON THE SPROCKET. UPON TIGHTENING CHAIN PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND SUZUKI CLAIMS TO DO A "GOOD WILL ONE TIME FIX". I KNOW OF MANY OTHERS WHO HAVE BEEN GIVEN THIS SAME LINE BY SUZUKI FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THE PARTS THEY REPLACE ARE NEW REVISED PARTS, NOT THE ONES THAT CAME IN THE MOTORCYCLE OEM, YET SUZUKI STILL STANDS BY THEIR PRODUCT AND INSISTS IT IS "RIDER ERROR" AND NO FAULT OF THE PRODUCT.
I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT SUZUKI HAS PROVIDED NO NOTIFICATION OR REPAIR. NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED. *AK
