1999 suzuki quad won't stay running

What do you mean by 'running? Holding the run button down continuously means you are running it on the starter motor alone. Not a good idea. This will burn out the starter motor if you keep doing it. A simple rule here is if you are not sure what you are doing pay a good mechanic to do it. Try going back to basics. An engine needs 3 things to run. Fuel, Air and Spark. Check there is fuel in the tank. Yes, i've done that! Next check the throttle links. if it is a cable setup, with the ignition Off, twist the grip on and off and see if it moves on the throttle body/carburettor end. Open the air box cover and check the filter is clean and dry. If in doubt replace it. The next bit needs a bit more work. pull off the spark plug lead at the engine end. Turn on the ignition and crank the engine for no more than 2 seconds. Turn the bike OFF. Remove the spark plug and smell it. Your checking to see if it smells of fuel. You will probably need a proper Spark Plug socket to do it, they are usually cheap to buy. Push the spark plug into the spark plug lead and rest it on the engine where you can see the sparking end. Again crank the engine for 2 seconds and watch the spark plug. you should get a regular clear blue spark. If you are in any doubt replace it. When refitting the spark plug install it with your fingers until it tightens then tighten to about 25 Nm (18ft/lb). If you don't have a torque wrench turn it with a socket and wrench until you feel it just start to tighten then stop. DO NOT over tighten as the threads will strip out and that becomes an expensive fix. Comment below with any more information and I'll see if I can help you more.

2012 Suzuki Burgman 650 Executive drives like eccentric or lopes.

Does it do this when stopped and at idle, only when moving or both? This is possibly a wheel or brake issue. Get all of the wheels inspected for damage and if they are rolling straight and true. Next get the brake calipers checked. If it has been stood for a long time the caliper pistons, brake discs and brake pads can become corroded and not operate smoothly. If the vibration is when stationary and at idle it could be something as simple as it hasn't been serviced for a long time. Another reason could be an engine misfire or a worn engine mount.

I have Suzuki DF90A and t h e speedo is not working I cleared the in take hole on the leg but it is stil l not although it worked partially.

I take it that this is a question about a boat and outboard motor if that is the case it is a pitot tube operated speedo that require water pressure in a tube to register speed on the gauge try removing the tube from the back of the gauge and blowing down to the hole to blow our mud , sand or weeds as just inside the part in the water may be blocked up

2006 Suzuki RM-Z250 won't change from 1st to 2nd.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to Suzuki. Normally caused by cracked return springs or bent selectors, but in your case, it's not. There is a shift kit available to fix the issue because it is well known. http://www.factorypro.com/prod_pages/prods,rm-z250,07-13.html https://www.google.com/search?q=2006+suzuki+rm-z250+shifting+problems ..

Where is the switch for the headlights on a 2001 Suzuki Bandit 1200cc motorcycle

Headlight controls are usually on you left hand. There should be a large rocker switch above the indicator switch. Can you comment below with photos of the controls? A simple test is to try all of the switches on the handle bars. You won't hurt the bike doing it. Being a 2001 bike the controls might have been changed for some reason during it's life, (It is a 20 year old bike). The photo below is a standard switch gear so it should give you an idea of what to look for. cebad869-8d3c-478b-9832-048c8d2eb45d-undefined-undefined-0.jpeg
