Hi
I've seen them for sale on e-bay, search on "SV650 tools"

Only 40 quid (http://http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUZUKI-SV-650-ENGINE-SOCKET-TOOLS-SV650-STAINLESS-STEEL_W0QQitemZ300141157206QQihZ020QQcategoryZ1053 4QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem), maybe we could all chip in?

Have to live in my toolbox of course, my idea...

Buy it, use it, send it back asking for a refund. It was the wrong one, silly me. That kinda thing.......




I'm such an honest chap. :p

40 quid is nothing for special tools when you consider the price of a pair tyres or a tank of fuel or even a Starbucks coffee! It is cheap really.

Not compared with grinding lumps off a £2 socket though, which is what I'd do... Though I've never got round to it yet.

i've done the grinding a socket before, it does work. If you need them by Friday it's maybe your only choice. I like real tools better myself.
If you do go the e-bay route you can always sell them on e-bay afterwards.

Mart didn't realise the can of worms he opened with his last statement.
You now have the blueprints.

SV.org is forming an orderly queue.............................



So how long is this bit of pipe you have left? Enough for a roaring trade in castle-nut extractors? ;)
