I was leaving a local parts shop and pulled out gave it 1/4 throttle while pulling out and then hit it, normally bike accelerates fine, this time it jumped then i heard some grinding and jerking, then hit the rev limiter in 1st, i throw the bike in neutral turn around and look and my chain is coming down from flight about 10 ft in the air. I just had my bike serviced at 4000 miles and the bike ahs about 4300 on it now. I turned around and pushed the bike back to the shop and put it inside and then got my buddy to go get my truck to pick it up. There isnt a whole lot of oil pouring or dripping but i wiped my finger and it looks like a hairthin crack across the case maybe the block. Called the dealer and asked if they could do anything cause i still have the facotory one year warranty and also an extended 3 year. They said no because it was due to the chain which isnt covered under the warranty. I told them that i just got it serviced there and if the chain was bad they should have told me to replace it instead of just squirting more lube on it and wiping it with a rag to clean it. So now im screwed i guess. What do you guys think i should do? Should i call Suzuki or just find another bottom end? I havent taken the bike apart yet im gonna do that tonight to see what happened, also the black sprocket cover cracked too!
I'll get some pics up of the damage.
