Owner report 10208763 · 2007-11-13 (November 13, 2007)
THE VEHICLE IS A 2006 SUZUKI GSXR750. THE VEHICLE HAS AN INTERMITTENT AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL INJECTION. PERIODICALLY THE VEHICLE WILL STALL AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS AFTER THE VEHICLE IS WARM AND HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR A TIME. OBVIOUSLY IT IS DANGEROUS FOR A MOTORCYCLE TO STALL AT ANY SPEED. I AM ONE OF HUNDREDS OF OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. IT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED BY SUZUKI. THOUGH MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY I PROFESS THIS IS A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS FACTORY DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. *TR

MY GAS TANK ON A 2006 GSXR 750 RUSTED OUT IN UNDER 3 YEARS. GAS WAS POURING OUT OF THE BOTTOM OF THE TANK WHERE 3 HOLES WERE SUBSEQUENTLY DISCOVERED. APPARENTLY, RUSTED OUT GAS TANK IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY ON A 3 YEAR OLD BIKE. IF THE GAS TANK CAN'T HANDLE THE REGULAR WATER CONTENT OF THE GAS THAT IS POURED INTO IT, IT IS AN UNSAFE TANK. *TR
