Not sure if suzuki finally worked it out in 2009 when this bulletin was released and are calling the newer (post 2009) rear radius arm bush 'modified'?
Wording has me a little confused but they are basically saying That adding that said bush will hopefully eliminate the opposite resonating oscillation that we call death wobble?

Guessing that's why newer ones rarely get dw?

My 2006 had the 'new' bushes, from what I can make out they changed the bushes and then changed them back after getting more problems.
The part number is moulded into the bush.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.

Mine has had a tolerable (barely) DW from day 1.
But after a few hours of abuse at a pay and play today it developed a wicked wobble (bucking bronco style) between 35 and 54 mph. Apart from everything getting battered and scraped and caked in mud the only visible damage sustained was the panhard rod getting slightly bent. So it's looks like I've finally gotta pull my finger out and spend some time and money on the beast. Has anyone had a go at making their own or strengthening their own panhard arm's?
