I would suggest the fuel is either old and/or some contamination has got into the fuel system. Try emptying the tank completely and fill with fresh fuel and an in tank carb/injector cleaner like Wynn,s or Comma petrol magic. Please make sure it is for petrol engines. Hope this helps.

i think something is wrong with the gearbox does it actually select 1 if it does then you may need to replace the air filters or check your carbs and plugs you describe lack of power and or some problem with the transmission

It usually takes a few minutes, I feel the engine casing to see if. It's warm, also when you turn the choke off it should idle smoothly. You'll get to know your bike soon enough

how many cylinder has it got?? a 50 is a single potter aint it. is this a 550??

disconnect battery undo bolts off plate under carbs on inside should be starter motor held by two bolts and a power lead disconnect lead unbolt should lift out

You may have gotten something wet. Try blowing out the spark plug caps on the wires. Blow off the wires and coils and their connections too. A coil can cause this but usually not on all cylinders.

Cracked plug insulator. Repl. spark plug.

Don't know why key stopped working but you do need to stop wiring up stuff just may

If the key is broken off in the lock, you will probably have to have the broken part extracted by the dealer or by a lock smith. MOST locks on fuel tanks that I am familiar with aren't really locks in the traditional sense, rather they take a key - just about any key that will fit in the lock, to open them. Said differently, your Suzuki key should open ANY peer Suzuki fuel tank. Either your 'lock' has a defect or you aren't operating it correctly. In either event, you will probably need help from one of the previously mentioned sources to resolve. You COULD replace the tank, but I think it cheaper to get the dealer to help you.

if the carbs need to be synced or if there is a leak in the intake the idle will not be able to be set correctly. Sync the carbs off of the #1 carb which is the carb to the far left while sitting on the bike. I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/robert_5bac37c3cb991fdb

The ignition box is gone. I have same problem. Replace it with a Dyna S from Dynatek model # DS3-2 is supposed to be the right one. I have one for my 81 GS560G but no time to try it yet. Backing plate will have to be worked a little to get around the oil sending unit if the oil sending unit is located there too. A dremel tool will do the job using the original backing plate as a template..be careful when you have re-locate the wires though.

is it when it gets hot or when you drive it for a short time?/ It could be that the gas tank isn't venting properly.Run with the Gas cap unlocked a bit and see if problem goes away. If it goes away then you need to find and clear the vent

Check operation of the slides. Start bike without tank and intake so you can see how the carbs spray gas. If the slides are not moving then your diaphragms are ripped or not installed correctly, I had the same problem. After I cleaned my carbs I lost almost 50% of power. After I took it apart again and played with the slides for a while I was able to get them to seel properly. After slides started to fill spongy I got 100% power again.
CHECK THE SLIDES (NEEDLE HAS TO MOVE (OPEN AND CLOSE) WHEN YOUR RUB ON GAS!!!!!!

What bike is it?In most models its very simple.For example in my GSXR K1 there is a alernator casing on the left hand side of the bike.Need to undo allen key bolts take the casing of (carefully as its wire inside,then basically follow the cables and bolts ie. take it out from the magneto,unplug the wiring,undo all bolts put the new alternator in then put back all screws,plug it back,put into the casing,and put the casing back onto it place.Job done.Dont forget to disconect your battery before.
