K8 clutch
#4
Just Got my K8 back from dealer last week after having same problem as Garbo. My Clutch started to make a rattling noise with the lever right in, but only when cold. Dealer didn't want to touch it and suspected wrong oil being used. I assured them something was f**ked and said I'll pay the cost of pulling the cover of to have a look (they warned me Suzuki would not pay if nothing wrong found).

It turned out the clutch assembly had come loose and had started to brush against the cover. I'm told they re-assembled and loctited everything. Hope it stays together.
My bike had done 5900k's so it was good timing to get my 6K service done. Just a shame none of the servicing cost (oil etc) was absorbed by the warranty work on the clutch.

Hope no one else gets the same problem. Missed out on some great riding weather and a Toy run for the week it took them to look at/fix it.
If it's too loud....You're too old!
If it's too fast....You're too old!
If it's too sexy....You're ???
