  1. Big Bike Barn
    I recently bought this bike. I've been riding for 50+ years, but this is the first time I've ever owned a Suzuki. And the very first thing I did, after I got the bike, was to get a Repair Service Manual. But the answer to my question wasn't there. So, here goes. When I turn the key to the "ON"...
  2. The Boulevard
    Okay, so. A while ago my dad asked me to replace the fuel pump on his M50 boulevard, and unsurprisingly I realized half way through the job that he had bought a fuel pump for a C50. In a moment of desperation (because the fuel pump for an M50 is $1700) I switched all the wires and mechanisms...
  3. Marauder M50 Secret Hideaway
    So here is what I figured out while riding the bike. The bike starts strong and starts to act like a flooded carb. Mind you the bike is FI. It gets progressively worse pretty quick. If I shut the bike off and turn the start switch on, wait for the fuel pump to stop humming, I can start the bike...
  4. Marauder M50 Secret Hideaway
    I have an '05 M50. I noticed my motorcycle was having a hard time getting enough fuel to start sometimes so I replaced the fuel pump with an upgraded new pump. After hooking it up to the bike I wasn't getting any fuel so my bike wasn't starting at all. I have now replaced the fuel relay, all of...
  5. Suzuki
    Hey guys, so I've got a non starting 2003 marauder vz800, and I suspect that it's a bad fuel pump. I've seen video's on YouTube on how to test them, but the issue is that all the video's test a pump that has two wires, whereas the marauder, has 4 (black/white, yellow/green, black/yellow and...
  6. CBR Pit
    Hello I have an 04 cbr 600 4fi. First of all I am assuming the noise made after you have the ignition on and then flip the kill switch is the fuel pump priming? Kind of a winding sound. I've had issues with the the bike since I bought it. The original owner cut out all the wiring for lights and...
  7. Suzuki
    I am the new owner of an '87 Suzuki Intruder VS700GLH. It ran great when I test drove it, and for the nest two hundred miles or so afterwards. My brother called me, and told me he heard a, "pop," like a backfire, then it died. I picked it up with my trailer and took a look at everything. First...
  8. Mechanics Corner
    I have posted a video below of what is going on... any suggestions? I have been told the fuel pump, and starter cluth possibly. Also there is a ticking noise when the bike is running, everyone says valves BUT the bike only have 6000 miles on it. Could a bad fuel pump cause the ticking? Thanks!
  9. The Boulevard
    Hello everybody, Tomorrow I'm going to attempt, with the help of the original owner, to replace the fuel pump on my 2005' suzuki boulevard C50. Should be interesting. Does anyone know of a good "how to" i can read over before i embark on this in the am? Or just some tips of things i should know...
  10. Mechanics Corner
    Well, being not too mechanically inclined, I was proud that when my bike dies last week, I was able to narrow down the problem to either the fuel pump or elictrical for the pump. Apart from that, I don't know how to really test either of them. All I know is that when bypassing the pump with a...
