I also had a bad run back from Donnington. My SV K4 stopped firing on the fron pot, in the outside lane of the M1!!! I managed to limp into Leicester Forest East services, and had to hang around there for the recovery people!

THe recovery guy found that the sparkplug was submerged in water!!! He has done a temporary fix, but my bike is not a very happy camper at the moment, so need to take it to the garage to get it sorted?

Will Suzuki take responsibility for it, or just brush it off as a spark plug problem, which isn't covered under the warranty? This is the 5th time it has happened in under a year.
