2nd gear transmission issue. As I pulled off from a green light in the city I moved into 2nd gear and the bike lost power like it wasn't in gear and then it launched itself and I almost hit the car in front of me. When I went to 3rd and 4th gear everything was fine until I had to go into 2nd gear it would pop out of gear.

Experienced " intermittent " clutch engagement shudder in 1st gear during engine warm up and after engine is warm. Shudder is sudden and occurs during the midpoint range of clutch release. Shudder is sometimes violent. Issue could result in traffic accident if road conditions are slick. Wet or sandy. This issue is definitely a safety hazard that could result in serious injury or death.

Motorcycle lost 2nd gear. Was on the freeway and almost got ran over due to the issue. After doing further research I found that many other owners of the same bike are having the same issues. After talking to suzuki corporate they stated that they have had many calls on the issue and that they updated the part number. When I google searched the issue there are hundreds of other owners having the same problem. To fix the issue is costing the owner 2000 to 3000 to repair. This is happening anywhere from 8000 miles and up. There even appears to be court cases where suzuki settled.

When shifting into 2nd gear, the bike feels as if it is in 2nd. Upon acceleration for about 3 seconds, the bike immediately dumps into neutral! In order to ride, I have to lift the gear shifter with my foot and hold it in 2nd gear to ensure I can get enough speed to shift to 3rd. Sometimes, I have to double shift into 3rd because once I remove my foot, the bike sometimes dumps itself onto neutral again. As long as I barely (I mean barely) apply any acceleration in 2nd gear, the bike will stay in gear a bit longer - but it will still dump itself into neutral if I don't shift to 3rd before it…
