I have a 2006 Suzuki M109R, with 12,000 miles on it, and I am starting to experience clutch shutter, and it also shifts hard into second gear. Both of these issues could cause a safety hazard under some conditions, and I think that because of the number o Suzuki M109R owners who are experiencing these specific problems, I think that Suzuki should recall these bikes to fix these problems, to minimize their liability, and improve customer satisfaction. We all get to decide what kind of bike to buy next, and if Suzuki will not stand behind their obvious problems on this bike, then the don't deserve future sales, and they do deserve lawsuits.

I have very little confidence in my M109, because of a serious vibration while accelerating. Only under a load, and no matter the speed. I've risen many bikes, and have only experienced this on the Suzuki. It's a shame, because I love the bike, but if Suzuki is not willing to stand by their machines, I'm not willing to buy anything more with their name on it.

I have M109r 2008 and I had shudder when it had 6000 km on it. I can't find any solution on the internet and don't want to have a temporary fix. Suzuki has to come up with a permanent fix and do it as a recall.

My 07' M109-R slips out of 2nd gear. This is an issue that every M109-R owner that I know has had with their bike. This is cause for great concern. A recall needs to be issued before some gets seriously injured, or worse.!.!.!

Same problem. It normally occurs on my bike when it is cold. I have replaced the clutch cable once and its close to going out again. I am a professionally trained motor rider as well as certified instructor for those who think it is operater error. The way Suzuki ran the clutch cable makes it prone to breaking down at the bottom. very sad because it is a good bike except for those two things and the way you have to check the oil. they could have put an inspection window like most bikes have but thats nit pickin.

Wow! funny how they're willing to take my money, but not back their product. 07 M109, 9,820 mile and I live in Alaska where the riding season is short and to get my bike fix take 2 months out of A 4 month season. Should be able to sue for loosing a riding season!
