Try putting fuel injector cleaner along with 93 octane fuel

Hi, The problem might be with your alternator, battery and or engine. Sounds like you're losing power at most speeds. Please ask autozone tech to scan your vehicle (free) for error codes and use those error codes to guide which car parts you will replace. Thank you.

possible cause worn drive shaft rear wheel hub rubbers look at your drive shaft rubbers located in the rear wheel hub if the rubber is worn it could make it shunt forward as the rubbers engage with the alloy locators if left can also damage your rear hub

First put your bike up on the large kick stand .2nd use a 17 mm socket and remove drain plug on bottom of engine.You dont have to remove the farings.After you drain the oil replace plug.Reach in front of the engine behind the front tire and remove the oil filter and replace.Finally add 4 qts of 10w-30 or 10w-40 motorcycle oil.Check ur oil through the oil window on the side of bike.

Check the fuses, but you will probably need a dealer to put in new electronics.

You're looking for about 120-150 psi. It'll run on as low as 90.

It seems it is Chinese with a Suzuki badge on it. https://www.google.com/search?q=carburetor+for+a+Suzuki+ES4000+generator ..

The question makes no sense at all as written, but I think you want to know if the key has an immobiliser chip in it? It does. How can you cut a key if you don't have an original key as a pattern? You may be able to order one if there is a number on the lock, then you need to pair the chip in the key with the system. https://www.google.com/search?q=suzuki+burgman+400+immobilizer ..

The Engine oil capacity on the VL 800 is:

3.2 U.S. Quarts (3000 ml) without a filter change

3.6 U.S. Quarts (3400 ml) with a filter change.

While Suzuki does not expressly recommend a filter change with every oil change, I change the filter anyway. I don't like the idea of leaving nearly a half quart of old, dirty oil in my machine.

Thanks for your question.please see this video

moved you out of cars to MC suzuki

remove air filters and try to start it.

there is a resistor inside the ignition on the black box you need, twist the RED and ORANGE wires, the orange wires are actually one wire split into two further down by the connector so cut the red and orange wires from here. you then need to join the ORANGE/YELLOW wire to one end of the resistor and the BLACK/WHITE wire to other end, clean up and protect with electrical tape and snip other two wires, you dont need them. now can you tell me what colour wires connect to each other on the right handle switch, i need to know the colours of the wires on the switch side where it connects to the main wiring harness (both sides plz say which is which!!) cheers mate

Check to see if you have a kick stand switch, and if so, that it is adjusted properly.

I would say that it is an internal problem with the starter.

Must still be air in the line....
When you bleed the brakes, use a small jar with some brake fluid in it.
From the bleeder nipple to the jar with the brake fluid you need a length of clear plastic tube.

Put the spanner on the nipple, push the plastic tube on the nipple and the other end in the brake fluid in the jar.
Open the bleeder nipple and pump the brake lever until all the air is out, you may have to refill the reservoir while doing this.
If you need to refill the reservoir close the bleeder nipple.

Also check the disk pistons for corrosion, you may have to take them out and clean them.

When you reassemble them use a small amount of silicon grease to lubricate them.


Hope this helps...

find your model/serial number off the unit. Google search will do the rest

Have you checked the actual fuel pipes for flow ? You might need a carb refurbish kit. Weak vacuum causes similar type problems.
