2008 Suzuki GSX-R 600 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

could well be the battery has just gone flat starting the engine up and running it for a fuw minuets knocks more out the battery that you put in and batterys dont like cold weather any how if your going to leave the bike standing around not being driven go out and buy yourself a 12 volt 2.5watt solar charger hook this to the battery and it will keep the battery toped up even in dull weather,,,,i have them on my bikes all year round,cheap power!!!

Check the power regulator from the alternator to the battery line.

First check the horn, make sure connection is good. Next put 12 volts right to horn. Check horn button

0 - 60 is 3 second in first gear, 0 - 100 is 5 seconds in 3rd gear, but you have to wind out 2nd pretty quick and power shift into 3rd. Don*t forget to breathe !!!

Take it to a dealer. Fi means some breakdown, dealer can retrieve code.

running lean. post a better description if you need better help

When the engine is idling, the alternator is not charging. Starting the bike will drain a weak battery. A fast idle (1000 rpm or so) will quickly recharge the battery. If the battery is dead and the alternator is not charging the bike will not run. Check the connections at the battery. Remove and clean them. Check the main fuse and all other fuses. (The temp indication may be a false reading due to other problems.)

You will need to go to a dealer and have them hook up a code reader. Only a serious problem will cause the Fuel Injection computer to cause the engine not to run. Please rate my answer. Thanks!

C00 means there is nothing wrong that the computer recognizes. you need to give alot more info to answer correctly. some issues do not throw a code i.e. bad plugs (unless its the coil to that plug), dirty injectors etc.

go to www.cmsnl.comthey have schematic pictures that may helpjust type in your brand,model etc

Well its not starting because you don't have enough voltage. The most likely reason your battery is low is because your not charging when riding due to a bad rectifier/regulator, they go out a lot on GSX-R's. Had to replace mine 3 times already on a 2009 gixxer 600, they put them in a bad place and they get so hot they go bad.

blown fuse

check pilot jets

Have you checked the bulbs?

its the rear brake light switch thats not working it could just be stuck in,,,the switch is near the foot brake leaver

Hi, you could try replacing the old parts, and check if the problem still exsists, it sounds like the bike is running lean with the new system fitted, addvise fitting a power comander to correct fueling problem and remaping the power comander to suite. Your exhaust application. Hope this helps. Paul

Check out this site, www.carlsalter.com, scrol down the list to find your manual. May not have your exact year but will get you in the ball park to remove the seat.

I was able to get the fingertip pad out of the liftgate by removing the two screws which hold it to the body of the liftgate. Once you detach the clip for the wiring harness, the rubber pad comes right out. Remove all 5 or 6 of the little screws to expose the inner workings. I then just used to solder to join the corroded parts which fell off long ago and it works fine. Here's a lousy picture! 2008 SUZUKI XL7 LIFTGATE

Support bike on paddoc stand, support also under engine to take the weight of the steering, remove your handlebar, do not disturbe any of the bolts on the bottom yoke and providing you have no weight on the steering you will not disturbe the suspension replace in reverse order, do not worry its not a big job, if replacing the r/h handlebar undo the twistgrip unit and slide it onto the new bar before fitting to the bike, this will omit the use for removing the cables.

Hi the power comander is easily removed as it runs in series with the bikes orIginal wireing, you simply remove the wire connectors from the injectors and the original connectors and the bike is back to normal while they send the power comander back to dynojet, its not unusual for the wires within the dynojet plugs to become faulty poping out of the block as you push the 2 connectors together, does your bike have 8injectors, 4 low rev controled and 4 higher rev controlers, as per instructions You must plug into the correct injectors, if the unit is faulty it will be replaced under warranty, with the pc 111 removed ride the bike and check if the fault still exsists, was the exhaust sensor wire removedAnd the o2eliminator fitted, this gives the pcomander full controll, never heard of a faulty one , heard of one that didn,t work. I would phone dynojet uk, if you live in uk, tell them the problem etc, tellephone(0)1995500600
