Kevin, see if the 2003 650's had a recall for the ignition switch in Italy and if it has been done on yours. In USA it was a free replacement. If it fails all sorts of issues pop up.
I am sure Italy has a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the Suzuki of Italy must track them that way. If they made a bad set of ignition switches for a year, Id say 99% that all markets world wide got bad ones.
