Hi,

I've just collected an almost mint fully faired SV650, very low mileage. I'm not going to start using it until late spring so before that I want to address some of the weak points that cause trouble if neglected. On my list ..
- Grease head bearings, check adjustment
- Clean out and re-grease rear linkage
- Remove swing arm, shim, re-grease (fit grease nipples?)
- Worth rebuilding callipers right away?

What else? Anything that's just worth removing and refitting with anti seize on the fasteners just in case?

Thanks Tony S
