Suzuki Contingency

Maybe #5

There's probably still checks out to bubba that need to clear first.

I raced this past winter at all the Victory-Sports indoor races that ran through Nov to feb and was finally paid in the spring time around April or May. I know suzuki posted a few payments in the beginning, but went into hiatus mode until they finally added the rest in one big installment. I think I spoke to Suzanne possibly about the situation. Hopefully everything with sort its self out and you'll be paid.

I love their bikes but their contingency program kinda sucks. I personally think Yamaha and Kawi have the best programs. In the northwest region at least

They still do- Yamaha pays top 3 (not 5) and pays less than half of what Suzuki pays. Honda doesn't even pay enough events to even discuss a contingency program (same with KTM) I don't know anything about the Kawi program, because I have never had any interest in owning one.

Here's my story...they owed me about 7 grand in '02 and when i got back out to Ca i went right to Suzuki in Brea to sit with the contingency guy to show him all the races that they owed me for.
I had to get it through to them that this was my only income, within a few weeks i was paid if full with 2 checks.
Suzuki has always been slow, but they always came through in the end.

Suzuki has a good program here in Colorado. I have had no problem getting paid all season long. I also raced an event in Texas at the 13' Texas Winter Series in Freestone and had no problem getting paid.
