650 v strom start up noise .

(1/5) > >>

Tomfum:
I have a 2024 650 v strom and at 400mls it started making a noise when starting . Like a shrill screech , it only last a second or two and only when cold . However it only happens now and again and when I took it to the dealers it wouldn't do it 🤷‍♂️ has anyone else had this start up noise ..!!!!

Tomfum:
Tried to upload a video of it but unable to do it .

If you are going to take it in for the 500 first service, make sure to mention it again.
Is your battery topped up? not too many short runs /left for a while , it should start without that screech for sure.It sounds like the starter clutch /sprag gear winding down, but it shouldn't sound like that.Showing the dealer your vid will help .

Upt North:
Make sure to mention it again at first service and get it recorded.
I would possibly also send an email to Suzuki UK just so you know you have a record should you need it.
If they can't find it, and I'm guessing it's either clutch or starter related, then ride. If something finally fails then get it repaired under warranty.
If you continue to get it Suzuki serviced it'll remain in warranty.

Sorry it sounds like I've only done 400mls when I meant it started at 400mls . The bike has now done 4,400mls and at the 600ml service it didn't make that noise but did get them to record it . Its really difficult to pin down as  I covered 2,000mls without doing it and now it has started again .
