2003 Suzuki 800 Marauder - Starts intermitently. I have checked gas in carbs, battery is fine, bike starts periodically and runs fine. Everything works fine when running. Stop the bike then it won't start again. I have been told it could be the relay assebbly for the starting motor that is on the left side under the front seat area. When it is running and I wiggle this relay the bike stops. I have checked wiring for bare spots and nothing showing. I don't want to replace the relay if this is not really the problem. Can you tell me what the relay actually does and is there a test procedure for the relay? Please and thanks!

Suzuki prints a publication that cross references vin numbers to engine numbers. They are sent to dealers.

No the suzuki 800 marauder seat will not fit the suzuki gz250. The mounting brackets are not the same distance from each other.

Check withe the dealer to be sure, but I think there is a number code on the bottom of the ignition switch. I think they can make a new key if given the code. You will have to remove the switch to see the code. It would be a good idea to take the switch in to check the new keys at the shop.

SOURCE: 97 suzuki marauder fork seals problem

Normally no. If the fork seals are leaking when you ratchet the front down on the trailer your seals were bad prior to that. If you are talking about the straps being wrapped around the forks the only thing that they would contact would be the dust covers. The fork seals are actually down inside the fork about 1/4 inch. Have a good day
