Gen 1 or 2, if its the Gen 2 check your bolts that are inside the clutch basket, there was a recall where the bolts would back out because of lack of locktite, if it sounds like a rattling sound thats your problem!

all my bikes get noisier when the oil is wearing out. How long since your last oil change?

vin check at dealer to see if recall was done.
If not get it done as hes right some of the bolts may be backing out on you and what you may be hearing is bolt head gouging inside of cover.

Maybe you need louder pipes?

If its a loose clutch basket bolt you have repair it ASAP as the scraps from the cover might cause damage.Leave the bike on its side stand an simply remove the clutch cover(minor loss of oil..if you're not going to change it).Search for scratches to the inner side of the cover and if there are some , remove bolts gradually and locktite all of them before retightening

Mic I'm not sure but I think there are some improved washers that are used when performing recall a dealer ?

For future reference, this does affect 09s. Mine had the same problem. Instead of pitching a fit, I took mine in, told them to fix my problem. They opened it up and what do you know, clutch basket bolts had backed out. They fixed and sent in paperwork for the TSB and charged Suzuki.

I've found with TSB issues, its best to just go in and make the verbal complaint of the symptoms listed on the TSB. Then let them perform diagnostics and repair on there own. When it comes time to settle up, bring them the TSB printed. They will be reimbursed by Suzuki and the argueing is much more brief if at all.
