I have a vibration and a squealing noise in rear end of bike. Suzuki will not authorize a dealer to look into on a warranty claim.

2007 suzuki burgman 400, squeak from clutch! While driving starting out from 5 to 7 miles per hour the squeak is something that is annoying the squeak comes and goes, sometimes louder than others. It has been "grabby" suddenly pulling the bike down and making a lurching effect which is unsafe considering the motorcycle goes over 75mph. I have had one clutch replaced with a new one, and the replacement they put on does the same thing. Squeak! I know the 2008 burgman 400 had a five plate clutch, the burgman 400 2007 only has three clutch plates... I think they corrected a known safety issue with the 2008's but are neglecting the safety on prior models like mine. I worry that I will be riding and it will catch and grab throwing me from my bike to my death.

I have a suzuki burgman 400 2007, my front brakes locked and caused me to lose control and crash, after gathering myself I checked the front to see what happened and noticed that the front rear fender bolts were gone and the front fender was very loose, and somehow got hung up with the front tire, and locked it causing me to lose control, I contacted the dealer the following monday because I picked the burgman up from the dealer on 6/27/07 they had just did or was suppose to do the first maintenance, the dealer told me that there is no way that they would miss something like that and that the bike had a very poor design with the fender, that it was to close to the tire and on occasion I could have a rock or something cause a lock up. I also contacted suzukis office in cali they told me that there mediator would contact me and not to turn the burgman over to anyone this is 8/4/07 and I have still have not contacted me.
