Mine is within the VIN range also, 1400 miles and no noise/problems. There is no way I'm going to take mine in to the knuckle draggers to screw up! I'll take my chances. I'm betting that 99% of us Gen2 owners have not and will not experience this problem.Great, my K9 falls into the VIN range.I only have 150 miles on the bike so no noise yet though.
I'm going to check with the service department at FunBike today...
Thanks for the head's up, Cookie!
If I'm not mistaken, you have over 30K miles on your Gen2. Me thinks you have no worries of bolts backing out on you at this point in time.
The latter is the B-King.
After reading the service bulletin it sounds like an easy fix and may be easy enough to do when I do the first service just to prevent any potential problems.
For any of you mechanical people out there would this be as easy at it sounds? Just take the cover off, clean the bolt, put some thread lock on it, and put it back together with a new seal? If that is it I'll add it to my first service which I plan on doing myself.
Thanks,

I missed it in October, thanks.
Nope... wasn't official until Cookie posted at least from Suzuki! Our oRg Brothers discovered the problem back in October of 08 and Suzuki addressed it just recently. Thanks Cookie for posting this info.

For this early released info,,, I pay inside people off with food and wacky "at work" play toys!

It would figure I am just outside of my warranty.
