Consumer Description

1. WHENEVER I RIDE MY SUZUKI SV650S IN HEAVY RAIN I HAVE A PROBLEM. 2. WATER GETS INTO THE FRONT SPARK PLUG AND THE FRONT CYLINDER MISFIRES OR STOPS FIRING COMPLETELY. 3. I HAVE REPLACED THE PLUG AND WIRE AND HAVE ATTEMPTED TO CONSTRUCT A WATER SHIELD. ALL OF THESE EFFORTS HAVE FAILED. WATER STILL GETS IN WHENEVER IT RAINS. TWO SUZUKI DEALERS HAVE TOLD ME THAT NOBODY ELSE HAS EVER HAD THIS PROBLEM AND YET AN ONLINE SEARCH REVEALS THAT RIDERS ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE VICTIM TO THIS DESIGN FLAW.*AK
