Motorcycle Repair: Suspension, suzuki marauder 800, 2000 suzuki marauder


Question
Chris,
I have a 2000 Suzuki Marauder 800.  For the last few days it seems like I'm riding down a bumpy road especially at lower speeds.  The front end just seems to have that feeling of being on a bumpy road.  Could it be out of balance or is it possible something is loose?  Thanks for your time.

Brian


Answer
Hi Brian.
 Did you just have the tires replaced?  If you did, they may have not seated the bead properly or they could have come out of balance (a weight could have come off).

If you ride as much as I do, then you could have a wheel bearing going as well, but that isn't really that likely since your bike is only a couple of years old.

Check those out and let me know what you find.
Good luck.
