Smile Re: Sv 650S 2013 (L2)

Hi Guys (& girls)


Its been pointed out to me, that as the bike will need service and tyres a more realistic price would be £2500.




New price is therefore: £2500

Smile Re: Chain noise

with chain off I would expect no noise as they would be no tension on the bearing to make it squeal, but if they is no wobble (play) in the bearing with chain off I would leave things as they are,...
