Needing some help. Janice's nephew has a '05 Volusia 800 that won't run. He's a high school band director in Athens, GA, and doesn't work on his own bike. He took it to a dealer, not Suzuki, with engine problems. It will run rough at part throttle, dies when given more throttle, and dies at idle. Injectors have been replaced, as well as 3 computers, with no change. Now they're telling him that they see discoloration in the tank and quoted him $3400 to change out the tank. They have had the bike for 7 weeks. We're looking for a mechanic with experience on these bikes. He's to the point of donating the bike to a charity to get the tax write off, if he can't get it fixed soon.

I've been looking for a Suzuki forum that has information and help like this one does, but no luck there either.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Volusiariders.com used to have a few good people that could turn a wrench. There might be a few left that could help.
I think it probably needs a valve adjustment, no parts required.
