4000 mile SV650 service videos

[Tamsen Cooper]

A step by step guide on each of the 14 sections. Thanks for the feedback, I will be uploading them as individual guides within a 4000 mile service playlist. Each one is taking a while to upload so I will post here as each new video goes up. As always I welcome your comments and ideas

I think these videos are really handy for owners, no matter what level of mechanical skill they may have. Good job!

Thanks for these videos, as a new owner they're invaluable.

[Tamsen Cooper]

I am not happy with the throttle and choke video, so I am going to redo it...

in the meantime...

Just subscribed to your channel, I've only recently got my hands on an SV650 (SK3 version) and previously rode little 125cc bikes so your videos will be invaluable to me - especially as I commute 180 miles a week.

The fuel system check video has been clipped at the end while you were still talking, so what was the info that was cut?

I am so pleased you spotted that, I hadn't thought to check the uploaded video length to make sure it matched the original. I have deleted that video and uploaded the correct version- don't know why it didn't upload all of it! Take a look and let me know if that looks a bit better! Thanks for spotting that!

Many thanks Tamsen.
Really useful to keep our bikes (and wallets) in better shape.
Wasn't there talk of org awards? You deserve one!

That is exactly what I was trying to do, as I was learning the basics I figured other people might find it useful too and may save a bit of cash. (and I really enjoyed doing it!)

However, if ever you screw it up (like I did with the front calliper and Hel braided lines- dam suzuki and the different banjo bolts pitches lol!) then I encourage people to get some professional help if they are unsure!

Someone suggested I do a pre MOT check video- what is the general view- would that be useful...?

[Geodude]

Why not Tamsen, mot check vid would be useful to those not in the know.
