Yeah maybe.

Dont get me wrong, the whine was the very first thing i noticed on collection, and I LOVED IT. Cant get enough of that whine. The clunk and raw mechanics of it i love too.

But that damn micro ziiz lol!

Have you tried reporting it to suzuki GB? They'll probably say that no else has reported it, so it can't be a problem (like they have with the oversensitive lights on/off). If enough people report these things, maybe they'll have to investigate or at least explain it. Each dealer will quite rightly say they've never heard of it, most of them have sold so few there's a pretty small sample out there for them to have seen any.

It may be worthwhile recording it so that you can play it back to the dealer.
This guy has something similar when setting.

I think it would be best to put this issue to Suzi GB in email, agreed.

Is anyone else going to follow suit or?

Yup, I'll drop an email too, see if we can prod them into a final answer to it

I will too. Wouldn't hurt to mention the over sensitive headlights on/off too, a firmware update would be good.
