A 650 What?
05/23/08 at 05:33:17
 
I rode my new 08 home from the dealer yesterday, would love to post a couple of photos but still cannot.  Built in January 08.  When my insurance company punched in the model/serial number it came up as a LS650D.  Anybody know what the "D" is?  The dealer doesn't know.  I've already got the seat, side covers etc removed to check the battery.  When I purchased my VFR in 01 I discoved a sloppy install by the dealer with battery acid laying in the battery compartment.

Maybe they changed the letter designation to reflect the handlebars style again. a LS650P = pullback, the LS650F = flat, maybe they decided to call the bars drag bars this year hence the LS650D. Just a theory of course.

This is what I found in the Suzuki Service Manual:
LS650H - '87 model
LS650J  - '88 model
LS650K - '89 model
LS650L - '90 model

Maybe something to do with the year of manufacture? Cheesy

I think the "D" stands for "Danggoodchoiceofmotorcycle."
