Front brake started making noise after about 50 miles.
On the first tank, I was getting about 50 mpg, since then I average 25 mpg.
Twice now the bike has died while riding. The electrics just vanished.
This bike handles very well.
Sounds like you need to take it back to the dealer. It is still under warranty isn't it? I have an M50 and it is super reliable as I have put 45,000 miles in two years. Take it back, they need to fix your problems.
I've had similar problems with the brakes, which still continues. I've also had problems with motorcycle being hard to start, back firing, and always feeling like it is going to stall. I've taken it to the company that sold it to me, but I feel like it is a waste of time as the problems continue and I have to take time off from work to drop off the motorcycle and to pick it up. I've been told that the carburetors were replaced and adjusted to run richer.
I loved the look of the motorcycle, but I wouldn't buy another of this make/model. I had a Honda which I felt very confident on, but this Suzuki S50 makes me want to ride the bus. Next time only fuel injection.
My S50 is a fuel injected vehicle, I don't know why yours is different? That is strange.
